If you hang around here long enough (an hour should do it) you will come to know that Ivor is just an annoying busybody who constantly sticks his oar in where it isn't welcome. Just ignore him. |

If reported to eBay, this could result in the auction being withdrawn by eBay, along with a loss of fees paid, and possible suspension of your eBay account. Ebay UseNet Policy eBay members may not post on Usenet groups (Internet newsgroups) to advertise eBay or an eBay listing that is inappropriate or violates the Usenet board policy. If Usenet abuse is reported to eBay, we may among other remedies) remove the listing, issue a warning, temporarily suspend or indefinitely suspend the offender's eBay account. We have no tolerance for UseNet abuse and will take action as appropriate. Please note that we can only take action in cases where it is clear that an eBay member has posted to the Usenet inappropriately. Usenet abuse should also be reported to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and the email provider of the person posting on the Usenet. Both of these organizations are in a much better position to prevent future Usenet abuse. [url]http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/usenet_policy.html[/url] |

It is not an advert. I guess an appropriate resonse from you would be 'no, it is not acceptable for you to suggest people do a search on eBay for your phone'. The phone might not even be up on ebay yet. -- Abo |

It was an advert for an eBay item, and as you clearly stated that it was "currently up on eBay", and if someone searched for it on eBay, it was "the only second hand one", so obviously, the phone would have been on eBay when you made that statement. |

I would expect an advert to include a description of the product, a price, and contact details of the seller. In that case, posting an indication here that such an advert exists on Ebay - even including the Ebay URL - doesn't in my view constitute an advert per se - since you have to follow the link to get to the *actual* advert. In what way is it any different from putting commercial URLs in your signature - which people are free to follow if they wish, but can equally choose not to? -- Cheers, Roger ______ Email address maintained for newsgroup use only, and not regularly monitored..

You have previously asked for, and received, some very detailed advice from members of this group when you have posted under the name of Roger Mills, but now you want to treat those same members with contempt by not accepting the group's charter, and also try and deceive them by pretending to be someone else whilst advertising in the group. |
