Yes , it is annoying when someone advertises too much.
Yet, habitual abusers may well be filterd, even by an
incompetent such as I.

I must admit, that most of the list are honourable
enough to classifly their wares under the subject AD:

To me, when I have no cash, that's a good indication
to ignore.

Seriously, guys (and gals), we have enough going on to
avoid the controversy of "who's advertising too much".

I appreciate the big boys behaving themselves on the
Ad front, I really do, but don't often read the ads
anyway.

It'd be far better for noobs if once a week a list of
which ebay names went out vs the dealer names. I'm
still putting my list together after a year.
The big boys, its easy but some of the little guys are
much les frequent yet I trust them implicitly.

My thoughts only (*posted at 2am and really tired.
Hope it makes sense and isn't too controversial)
