I'm pretty certain there are/have been many items listed in the classifieds that are not sold by the owner themself. I know first hand as a buyer I have bought at least one item that was not owned by the person who listed it. I think the rule change is more about giving more responsibility to the member for poor transactions rather than blaming the message board for allowing the transaction to happen.
