How is it advertising a company to post a link to a 3rd party ebay listing?

Default I have been thinking about an eBay forum

Keep eBay links out of everywhere else, consolidate in one spot. Haven't decided yet though.

Fundamentally I have an issue with allowing people to sell in eBay and then ADVERTISE here because that is what would / could happen. I want to sell my e-codes. I put them on eBay. I come over to AW and post my eBay auction in every forum. Not fair to the users at all - they don't want to see forums full of that. And not fair to AW who is helping to facilitate the sale at that point.

Can anybody put up a rationale argument against what I just said?

Would you pay $5 per year for a subscription to the said eBay forum? Or hell call it Swap Meet and any and all selling is allowed, but it is comfined to that forum. Again, would you pay something for an annual subscription to that forum?

Default I would....

for $5, but not any more than that. The classified section is decent but has very limited exposure.

A Swap Meet Forum would be nice.

Would you have to pay to buy also? Or just to sell?
