Hello list,
I like to find all ebay and all other AD's on this very
list.
Somtimes items are sold within a few minutes and I don't like
to check the yahoo list every 5 minutes.
I made a couple of very good buys thanks to AD's on this list. For
some items I was - unfortunately - too late
as they were put on the list when it was 3:30AM in Europe :-(
(e.g. 5g of Ensisheim).
PS.: I think that Meteorite AD's are much more meteorite related than
a lot of other contributions that have recently reached this list!

Sorry Chtristian and Peter,

I did not read the message related to Ebay. I 
was very pissed off by many non meteorite related messages that I almost stop 
reading all.

I understand that there should not be any 
annoucement of Ebay Sales on this list. 

Just 2 questions:
Is it in the list policy ? 
STeve is probably right. Some times ago I 
understood that we shoud clearly write ADD ebay on the object so anyone can 
automatically skip off the messages with the Outlook ( or other ) t messages 
tools

Where should I send my ebay sales adds ? Personnaly 
I don't care send messages to other lists. 

Sorry again.

BTW I have 23 auctions ending in a couple of hours 
!

Best regards

Michel.

There is NO list policy banning the announcement of ebay auctions on this 
list. It was agreed some time ago that the word "ad" should appear in the 
subject line so that list members not wanting to read advertisements did not 
have to even open the email. Check the list policies and you see that I am 
correct.
http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing_list.shtml

Just because some list members HATE ebay does not mean they have the power 
to ban ebay ads. They should direct their efforts to more important list 
problems such as vulgarity and flame wars.

So post away Michel. I would love to know when your ebay ads 
appear.

Hi Jim, hi list ,

I don't have a problem with this options.
I just wanted to clear this subject.
If others post their auctions to the list using AD or SALE option then
I will also continue to do so.

Dear List;
I agree with Jim!  The delete button is what one needs to figure out, 
Eye to Brain to Finger to Delete button. Fragmenting meteorites to this 
list, that list,all over the place due to lack of using a delete key 
fingerand being upset with modern business 
practicesEGEBAY...is just sour grapes, get a life!
I welcome ebay adds to the list most of the time and refuse to shop to a 
dozen different places to see adds...Hell, I can still find ebay.com and 
bypass a bunch of lists if that was the direction needed.   Old timers 
should rest prehistoric views.

Dear all,

Just to make the thing progress a bit,

Would any of the Ten Group tell us if they saw a significative change in
their auctions since they did not AD on the Met List ?

I feel happy to comply with any rules, when it is clear and official.

Perhaps Art can help us to sort out this tread.

Best regards From Chamonix ( no snow so far)
