To some extent, I don't mind adverts on here, but adverts for adverts on
ebay tend to irk me as it means launching a browser then finding the data
etc. I'd have thought if people were going to post an ad, the least they
could do is say something about it, and then nobody would waste their time
going to ebay if half the thing is missing or its broken.

Of course there may well be a charter banning adverts, but I have seen no
post of a charter or a location so if there is one, then one cannot expect
people to know unless the location is known.

Don't think so. The only regular posts I see are for the FAQs.
