Will the ebay kill joys not regard this as free advertising?

I like it. I know ebay are having a purge to remove active content from listings but I haven't seen anything about links yet. Let's see how long it lasts

Surely if its is Daz's own ebay page he can put on it what he wants!

I have no problem with active forum members posting links to their own eBay sales. Good luck Daz.

It doesn't work like that. As you would expect with any trading platform, there are plenty of rules.

I think the concern is because Daz has put a link to us from his ebay page and weather ebay would allow/like it.

eBay doesn´t want to be a showroom with a link to a website, on which one can buy outside of eBay.
Thats why they don´t want links to other websites.
In this case, even if eBay finds this link, there is no sales page available, so nothing might happen.

I have had the Action Man forum link on for years. never been a problem. I suppose if it was a link to sales or a private site it would be another story. hopefully it will attract some new members ?
