He could have just put a link to a web****e full of his spam, but no, he
chose to put loads of links to the ****e he's selling instead.

If he'd said "If anyone's interested, I've got a load of old ****e for sale,
here's the ebay number for one of the bits of tat, if you search for other
things I'm selling you'll see the rest of my ****e" then at least he'd be
being honest.

Oh, actually taking part in the group instead of just trying to flog ****e
would possibly help.

eBay themselves have a specific policy on advertising through usenet.

quote
"eBay users may not post on Usenet groups (Internet newsgroups) to
advertise eBay or an eBay listing that is inappropriate or violates the
Usenet board policy. ...

We have no tolerance for UseNet abuse and will take action as appropriate."
/quote

There may be a group that is dedicated to advertising private sales but
this simply isn't it.

To question if it is spam if the material is relevant... If it is
unsolicited and sent by email to promote a commercial venture it is spam.

Irrelevant. Look at the link. eBay (rightly) do NOT like people spamming
auctions. The charter for the group also (IIRC) forbids it.

How many people are selling classic car material on fleaBay at the moment?
Thousands. What would happen to this newsgroup if EVERY ONE of them posted
a link to their auction here?

If somebody wants to buy a brochure for a 1942 Throgmorton Whippet, then
fleaBay's website is hardly difficult to search. You can create and save
repeating searches, too, which email you the result.

Do you have a brochure for a 1942 Throgmorton Whippet?

The one with the twin overhead crankshaft, seven piston, diesel two
stroke engine and preselect indicators?

From the charter:

"Advertising
Lengthy and or off- topic posts will not be welcome. Short (i.e. 10
lines max.) announcements of relevant products, services and events,
inviting e-mail inquires or suggesting URLs for further information,
will be allowed. If traffic is heavy enough, uk.cars.classic.forsale
might be created at some future date."
