Item Description:
You are looking at an adorable Hello Kitty 18 months, light pink,
long sleeve outfit by Sanrio. This two piece set is 60% cotton, 40%
polyester and machine washable in warm water and tumble dry low. The
fabric has a pretty quilted weave to it. The bib collar is white and
embroidered with pastel flower and leaves that match the applique of
Hello Kitty wearing a rose pink flower in her hair in place of her
signature red bow as shown in the picture below. A bunch of matching
pastel flowers and leaves also adorns the scallop hem of the top
skirt as well as the bottom front cuffs of the pants.
I also have other Hello Kitty items and some fine jewelry up for auction, so
please take a look at:

... and why would that be, Fred?
One's ebaY account certainly has nothing to do with their newsgroup
postings. For all you know, the poster *meant* to post this to the other
ebaY newsgroup.
And if you consider one single newsgroup post to be 'spam', you're best not
to read newsgroups at all.
<sigh>.
How nice for you, I bet your parents are really proud. Now fnck off and post
your adverts in a relevant newsgroup & stop infesting this one.

And after checking the alt.marketplace.online.ebay newsgroup it seems that
TrinityX has posted multiple times in that newsgroup, but only once here.
Looks like a mistake to me.

I shouldn't even waste my time replying to this, but that's a new variation
on the lamest excuse I've heard lately.
Maybe the bank robber only meant to scare someone with the loaded gun.
EbAy says you can't post to newsgroups where such posts aren't allowed. It
doesn't matter whether you thought you were posting to another newsgroup, or
thought you were writing to Aunt Hattie.
There are over four million auctions on ebaY right now. How much time would
we spend wading through garbage if each of them was only posted once to this
newsgroup, by someone who *meant* to waste someone else's time with them?

I'll be sure to send an instructor over personally tomorrow, to help her
practice not making mistakes.
Meanwhile, I may accidentally report her to ebaY, meaning to just point our
her mistake to my fellow AMOEers.
How much of my time did you waste with your off-topic (yet not marked as
such) post on Vaentine's Day? That was a post better suited to alt.love or
alt.suicide.holiday, don't you think?

Not nearly as much as you've wasted defending the spammer du jour.

If my occasional OT post is such a problem for you, killfile me.
But please, not before explaining how I can killfile everyone of the people
who might post those 4 million ads here, without getting rid of any of the
regulars.
Like any normal person, I'd just not spend the time clicking on the posts
that are OBVIOUSLY ads.

Really!? WOW!!!! That's great! Thanks for sharing!

Neil, I'm not at all convinced you are sincere about the "best regards"
part.... : )~
So your idea of how to deal with newsgroup spam is to not click on the
ads? Exactly how long do you think it would take for the group to be so
overrun with ads that there was nothing else left? This isn't a
supposition, it's happened to lots of groups, which is what has made
most of the surviving groups so strident in their anti-spam positions.
I don't know how long you've been on usenet, but the "Just ignore it, it
really isn't doing any harm" approach is about as workable as putting
out a fire at a dynamite factory by pouring gasoline on it.

Thanks for the apology. I hope the hate mail stops.
Here's a helpful tip: posting your auctions in newsgroups
rarely brings in additional buyers. People don't go to
newsgroups to see what's for sale on eBay; they go
directly to eBay and do a search.
Your best eBay advertising is a good auction title with
(only) related keywords that will attract bidders.
See! You've just saved some time for kid-muffling ;)
