I'm using strongly against this sort of thing, but these get a pass from me:

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

So, then this is a thing.  Posting Ebay listings that members might be currently bidding on?  Wasn't there a rule about only posting Buy Now listings?

It happens man.. if I've flagged something just shoot me a PM and ask me to take it down. Did this myself the other day with a link that someone else dropped.

I'd guess they're probably nylon. I'd wear them to summer BBQs with seersucker or blazers but I can't really think of any other occasion that'd call for a hamburger tie.

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

It is frustrating having things listed you are watching/bidding on - there was a rule of auction only and I think that is fair, BIN items should not be listed in my view - not sure if they are, Oliver's posts are normally auction items.

If I see an item that is not my size but is cool I often pm the members I think will like it with advance heads up, only after that do I post in here.

What about auctions that have BIN available?

We have had a gentleman's agreement with regards not posting auction items.

I clearly did not know this as I've been dumping auction links in this thread for ages... my bad!

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

It's a bit of a double edged sword.  I have benefited from people posting both types of auctions in here over the years.  Items I would have otherwise never come across.

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

Sorry my confusion - of course that makes sense, the BIN, Auction or make offer option does indeed make it even trickier.

I have benefited from Oli posting auction items too.
He does do a sterling service for us all , so it is a tough one.

I may only be speaking for myself, but if I shared an auction in this thread and someone asked me to take it down because they were bidding on it, I'd be more than happy to oblige.

Re: Ebay / Etsy alert

My personal inclination is that anyone should feel free to post anything they wish here.  If a member is interested in a particular item and is serious enough to bid / purchase it, then they can PM the poster and request that the link be removed.  By and large we're an accommodating bunch and I doubt any member would respond "no" to a request to remove a link.  I will sometimes send a specific item to another member via PM if I know it is their size before posting it here, but it's also not realistic to think that each of us are keeping track of the measurements of everyone else.  Essentially, I think the benefit of posting any and all listings outweighs the negative possibility that someone else will snag it or that you'll be forced into a bidding war.  As with life in general, you win some you lose some.

I agree  and its not as if there are millions of people out there that share the same tastes as us freaks.
