    Give it another 3 to 4 years & then it should be completed.

    Sigh, still having to redo all the social media adverts, such a waste of time.
    Still no news or newsletter for that matter ?! Why can't we be told what the delay is ?

    While not wishing to drag this thread off topic, perhaps someone can answer a slightly related question about item numbers. If I want to give a short URL for a listing, how do I do that? I was hoping it would be as simple as: https://www.ebid.net/173762035

    But that just gives a 404 error. Since putting the item number into search works, it would seem a URL like that would be a natural?

    Don't know John, I'm not techie enough, maybe Astral or cheaver could help. Looking at my buddy link it looks like this :-
    https://www.ebid.net/uk/buddy/197704, so listings must be something similar.

    You should be able to use a html editor & make text what you want it to say & then add hyperlink using the url of your item.
    Here is an example below.

    Hmmm. Sorry Ray, but to me that feels a bit like a recipe for a Bloody Mary that starts "Insert your hand in a blender...".

    Your method works in environments where html is available. But not if you're sending a plain text email.

    Contrast the situation here with ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362534757522 works. Admittedly it needs the 'itm', and I was hoping someone would tell me there's something similar on ebid. Even http://ebayitem.com/362534757522 works.

    Meanwhile, back on topic, as Becky wrote...

    There was a Gazza-sighting this morning on https://www.ebid.net/forums/showthre...estions-forum) so maybe there's a chance?

    I hope he's got his snow shoes on and his thermals.

    Stomps off in a huff to repost all my closed eBid listings on Pinterest for the umpteenth time - such a waste of time.
