Yeah, I was thinking along the same lines. The WTB would fulfill the need if there was more activity, but it isn't there. I posted an ad in WTB for stamped 1/4" bullseye washers without any success. There aren't many people who could have had those though. The OP mentioned what he needed in the workshop forum and there is already someone saying they have what he is looking for.

A database would be a lot of work and difficult to maintain. I wonder how well it would work just to have a "WTB Parts/Materials" thread sticky in the workshop forum where members can post what they are looking for. It would have to be cleared (or replaced) when it got too long though.
