Thread: Fleabay item of interest to some.

  1. #1

    Fleabay item of interest to some.

    Hello all,

    There is an interesting item for sale on ebay that someone in the Philadelphia area might be interested in. It looks like someone thought they might like to try woodworking and then decided otherwise.

    Item #7622505108.

    If I was closer to Philly it might be worth it but I already have each of these items.

    Could be sweet depending on how far up the bidding goes. I'm two hrs. away and dreaming.

    Notice that the winner has to pick it up "in his basement". That means the winner needs to be prepared for some heavy moving. Getting a beast like that down into the basement is one thing. Getting it out working against gravity is something else.

    FYI folks, links to ebay auctions are prohibited per the SMC TOS. You can pretty much kiss this thread goodbye as soon as the moderators discover it.

    Very true but is it fair? We allow links to manufacture sites and machine dealers. Isnt this auction site just one more way of sourcing items? Grizzly is allowed to have stuff here but not ebay. I do have to ponder this at times.

    I don't think it violates any of these rules:
    External Linking
    Links to other websites are allowed in posts. In fact, they are
    encouraged. However, links for the sole purpose of marketing,
    generating traffic to a site, or any other commercial advertisement deemed to solicit commercial benefit are not allowed. Links to other public or private forums are not allowed. Links should be submitted as references, for the sole purpose of generating or supporting discussions on SawMill Creek.

    Me too.

    All I can come up with is that someone has had a problem with Ebay in the past and this is their way of getting even.

    However, as owners of this forum they are entilted to do as they wish. I have no problems with that. Might makes right, and always will.

    Let's see, Philadelphia's how far from Seattle? Oh, never mind.

    I posted exactly one link in my short history here (to show people what seemed to be a neat idea), and it immediately was deleted, so I simply will never post a link in my posts, which seems to be what is desired by the owners of the board, which of course is their right.

    Deja moo -- the feeling you've heard this bull before

    I don't see any link anywhere....did it get edited out? Nothing in the TOS says you can't post a number that you can go look up yourself on eBay.

    From what I remember when the original discussion on Ebay links was that it is fine to mention Ebay, descriptions, sellers, and even item numbers.

    Intestingly enough, while I know that we're not allowed to post specific links to ebay auctions - I don't see where it says that in the TOS.

    Ken (Salisbury) - where is it specifically that it says we can't post a link to an Ebay auction, provided it's not for commercial interest?

    I know this is the rule that gets enforced, just can't see it in the TOS.
