Interestingly, it isn't the privacy they care about. It's this line:
"Your listings may only include text descriptions, graphics, pictures and
other content relevant to the sale of that item"
that bit me. I am actually pretty surprised that they didn't object to the
link to my website that lists everything I have for sale!
It will be interesting, as I have 24, count'em 24, other auctions running
that have the same information -- word for word. It's in my template!
