I was thinking since it seems like half the forum sells crap on ebay why not have a thread(ONE) where we can advertise what were selling and post links I dont think we should allow images in such a thread because of hosting issues but over all I think it might be a cool feature

I like the idea, but I think it was brought up before and it was voted against.

Just make it in this forum, if there is enough interest it will stay near the top.

Yeah, I thought posting auction links was generally frowned upon.

Somebody let me know if I'm wrong--I got a hot one.

I did it and the thread was locked, "because we shouldn't post ebay links anyways", yet the 10+ ebay threads since then are still here.

Maybe it was yours that I saw.

Some of the undocumented "rules" are enforced a little inconsistently. I've seen one thread about 12dailypro locked, but two others allowed to persist. I just decided to advertise my auctions elsewhere...

Someone suggested we have a buy & sell forum, I believe we had a vote and decided against it. Either way, it's not going to happen. In general, people shouldn't be posting their eBay auctions here as it is...sometimes we allow it if there is meaningful discussion.

Well now my interest is peaked, how about a one time pass so we can see the "hot" auction.

The auction is for an Xbox 360 w/ Madden NFL 06, for receipt on 11/21 or before. If you're still interested, feel free to PM me.

I think you missed my point im very against the buy & sell forum that was cartrenroys idea
My idea wasn't to actually sell anything on here it was more to help people get attention to their auctions
but whatever its cool I dont care it was just an idea
and I think everyone should use icons wink

all i gotta say is this isnt ebay so it really shouldnt be here but then again if someone wants input on a item they are selling on ebay or want to sell i dont mind that thread being in off topic for suggestion
