I think people do this because they are insensitve, crude and
inconsiderate, plus they may be greedy and selfish too.

I think that's why they post E-Bay junk here.

It does make me wonder how effective E-Bay is though, if it needs the
extra "help".

Happy Holidays to all...Howard

I picked up a Yaesu FT-847 on Ebay via a post here.
I paid $675 for it on ebay about a year ago.
The rig is flawless and works great!!
Keep the ebay posts coming!!!


Someone else will be wondering why the heck they can't post ebay ads for
their Hummel figurines soon!

But then again, some people enjoy spam too! 8^)

If everyone looks down a few post you will see the problem is still
here and he has ignored all the complaints directed at him.

Don't forget the many which are posted repeatedly for the same item,
or the hourly updates on when the auction closes.

My idea would be to have a special Website for all of the eBay
auctions, and the people who want to look at auction items could go
there, and others could choose not to. They could call it ebay.com or
something, have a search engine, and all sorts of other features.

Happy trails,

What a great idea, why did someone not think of this before? That way,
people with six or more working brain cells would be able to go there
and just put in what they were interested in and find it then there
would be no need to spam DISCUSSION newsgroups with ebay ads.
But even is such a place existed, the ebay clowns don't think others
have the capability of using such a sophisticated search engine so it
behooves them to make sure we know about their auction through the
newsgroups.
