eBay Announcements in MMDigest
By Andy Taylor

Hi,  Just my two cents on eBay items in the MMD.  There is nothing
wrong with trying to reach your market, but it should be kept simple.
Here are a few suggestions to keep this at bay (no pun intended).

1. All eBay items are relegated to the very bottom of the Digests,
grouped together.  Those interested can scroll down to read it,
the rest will not.

2. Only a very brief description of the item in two lines or less;
any more will be <snipped>!

3. Only one hyperlink allowed.  (If the ad has several items the one
hyperlink should point to the page where they all are listed.)

4. The listing only appears once per item or group of items.

5. Plainly state if you are willing to ship internationally or not.

6. Support your MMD editors (at the very least a thank-you)!
