I tend to err on the side of caution, so I checked to be sure. I had 9 razors up, and only placed the single post, so I think I stayed inside the rules. I have put a few razors here in the classifieds, but it seems that people shopping on here either want dirt cheap, or beauty queens. And time is a factor. I couldnt wait to see if I had a sale or no, 7 days, sale happens. Even if I dont get as much as I hope, or in some instances, found I got more than I thought I would!

Yes! understandably a good way to turn razors into cash!

But, why not not post them here? and save 10% ebay fees and 3 % paypal toke.
For one fair price,or take a chance of losing on the bay,than again,sometimes the bay turns out to be a good thing for sellers.
If this is okay with SRP,I may start doing the same.JMO

Yes, fair is fair, but because Magpie is selling off and not just selling, I see it different. I sorta think we self-regulate this. It seems to work. We do have the Classifieds, no doubt, but it takes time to sell there. If cash is to be raised quickly, that means razors are to be sold and shared. Ebay, or Classifieds!
Sort of a moral decision for us. I think this is why the rules are vague?
Best to All,

Under the dire circumstances the OP is under,Agree 100%

I dont like the word "Dire" its just a temporary setback. In a few months, all will be well again, the sun will shine, and I will sip Pina Coladas while honing Livi razors on Jnats on the beaches of Bermuda.

No doubt! You needed some new razors anyway! Those were getting old! Next time around, you will do things different. A fresh start! The GOOD stuff! Sounds kinda neat!

LOL, I had the same question and figured I would search this forum to see if anyone did it first. I dont want to be someone who uses SRP to promote my stuff on Ebay but its kinda good to let people who are interested in looking. I also understand why there is a rule about this... if there wasn't there would be a huge amount of links to any and every Ebay post for a straight. Thanks for asking Magpie.

Just my two cents and YMMV but I think it is bad form for any member here to solicit our membership with their ebay offerings.
