This is the thing everyone is talking about. No description at all
just a link. You are a moron.

While I tend to agree with you on these auctions that aren't "For
Sale" items, I must say, it is you who are the dummy if you can't figure
out the description. Did you look at the Subject line?

I read the subjects and for the life of me can't understand what wayward
waterfowl have to do with rec.radio.swap??
The Heathkit I got, but I'm assuming they had more than one kit?

As for the MFJ item... I'll give ya that.

The point is, 99% of these links are useless to the newsgroup user and are
usually useless for a buyer in general as they aren't seen until 12 hours
after the auction
is OVER. I don't check newsgroups every morning before work, and gasp
sometimes not for 2 weeks at a time.
THEN consider the fact that they jam up the archives and searches for the
next several years.

404 dude.

It doesn't just annoy the newsgroup, it jams up a simple internet search,
too... we have to see them here, then we have to pilfer through all the
"invalid item" links that pop up in general internet searches and more.
Take a minute, next time you get an 'invalid' or 'not-found' item or posting
and check the date on it.
I'll lay cash on the barrel head that it's a 2-year-old ad for a 3-day
auction.
Then you go back to clicking that same nonsense for the next 4 and a half
minutes just to find a useful link...
