Step 1 of Selling: Ensure you check the link when posting!

Here is the correct one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3767&item=5716152637

Start price £1,500 (about $3,500 i think)

don't we all wish that...heh

but i'm actually selling some domains as well and I looked at the TOS:



Look at the bold an underlined text

3. Prohibited Actions
COMMITTING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING PROHIBITED ACTIONS CONSTITUTES GROUNDS FOR IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT AND FORFEITURE OF ANY ACCUMULATED EARNINGS WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE. PLEASE READ AND OBEY THESE RULES!

Participant, and friends or family of participant, may not click on advertising links displayed on Participant's own domain names.
Participant may not beg, ask, entice, or incentivize users into clicking on advertising links.
Participant may not re-direct traffic to their parked domain name. This prohibition extends to traffic redirected from non-parked domains, and purchased traffic such as pop-under or exit traffic. Each domain name must be parked separately.
Participant may not display their parked page as a pop-under or pop-up window without prior approval by the Program.
Participant may not categorize domain names is unrelated categories.
Participant may not generate traffic to their domain name(s) or clicks on advertising links by any of the following methods: listings on newsgroups or discussion boards (with the exception of "domain for sale" postings), bulk e-mailing, icq postings, or chatroom/irc postings, iframes, zero pixel frames, hitbots, clickbots, spiders, cgi-scripts, java-scripts, or any other similar method.
Participant may not modify the Program parking page or code in anyway without prior approval. Only clicks originating from an unmodified, Program-served parking page will be considered valid. Participant may not place the parking page within a frame without prior approval from the Program.
Participant may not mislead visitors into believing that he/she will receive anything other than an internet search by clicking on a text link or search box.
Referring pages must not be password protected in any way.
The Program reserves the right to terminate your account if it is idle for more than one month.
Inability to comply with any of said terms of agreement will forfeit any unpaid earnings and result in the termination of Participant's account. Further legal course of action may be considered to prosecute violating Participants.



Therefore its alright to post the link if it is on a for sale post...if i am wrong correct me on this.

Yes you can put the domain name up for sale but you can't hotlink it, it takes down the value of a domain name and takes money away of true click throughs.
