Asa & All, I will consider everything that is emailed to me privately before submitting to the list. However, regarding eBay you can now have searches emailed to you with whatever names, counties that you are searching for. (If anyone needs help with this feature, email me privately) I personally use this feature, it works great, and since this is available for anyone to use, there really is no need to send the information to the list. Nuff said, Rene' list administrator -------Original Message------- From: AsaK@aol.com Date: 5/8/2007 8:41:16 PM To: rtreff@stny.rr.com; nydelawa@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [NYDELAWA] eBay and other advertisements Rene, I appreciate your work in trying to keep the list "commercial free" but I hope you will consider listing eBay auctions on a case by case basis, on the merits of the item and its relevance to the list. I have benefited immensely from having people post these things. I actually found and bought a 200 year old family bible of my 8th great grandfather's on eBay - and it never would have happened if someone hadn't written to one of my lists and said "guess what I found!"
