However, if you have parts for sale, or seea van in your local paper, or on the road that you want to pass info along on do it.

If a listee wants to post an item they have for sale on the list before putting it on ebaY, that's ok. If its done after the fact, then IMHO, it's spam.

Not sure what you're asking for. To specific e-bay listings? E-bay listings in general? Pea-brains that post their e-bay listings?

If there's something on e-bay that I wanted to bid on, which there isn't, I'd take the time to search for it. I hate e-bay listings posted to the Vanagon list. Have you ever noticed that most of the folks that tell you about their e-bay listings aren't 'regular' members of the list? Drives me nuts...

That doesn't answer you question though, does it...? :o)
