I'd be interested in seeing that particular rule.... if you would please
provide a link. It doesn't seem logical to me that EBay would prohibit the
advertising of their own auction on other sites, when such advertising can
only further EBay's chance of increased profits through the EBay sale going
as high as possible.

Thanks, Evan, but that only points to a violation of a newsgroup policy.
According to the policy you cited above, EBay itself does not have a
problem with newsgroup postings unless the policy of the newgroup itself is
violated.... which leads to... is there an "official" policy of
rec.radio.swap prohibiting the posting of auction items.... and more
particularly, those EBay items available for sale as a "Buy it Now" item?
