Hello.
I'm selling my father's Hammer c3 31 combination universal woodworking
machine, hardly used good as new.
It's an awesome bit of kit - search for 'hammer c3 31' on youtube for
a demonstration of its capabilities.

Spindle moulding, circular saw, planing - it does it all, and comes
with many acessories to make your woodwork projects easier.

Thanks for your time and attention

Seems a little harsh in the circumstances...

The key phrase there would appear to be "that is inappropriate"...

Given the nature of the item in the ebay listing, that does not appear
to be the case in this circumstance.

Also take note of the uk.d-i-y faq:

"Private individuals wishing to sell (or give away!) relevant items can
use this group to advertise them, within reason, so long as they post a
follow-up when what is for sale is no longer available."

It is a very difficult call.

In the past I have been a bit trigger happy in labelling for-sale items
here as spam until someone pointed out the paragraph you posted with the
emphasis that it should be non-commercial.

IMV it would be reasonable for an active contributor here or from
another related group to advertise a surplus item here but it seems that
the o/p hasn't posted here before, in fact this would appear to be his
first post to usenet.

The entry is in well polished ebay speak implying this is not a one time
seller, so why no posts to usenet except to advertise?

It smells a bit like spam but is it?

A quick peek at her selling history reveal mostly dresses and
domestic items. The fact that she took the trouble to seek out the
group should act in her favour rather than against her, no ?

I was trigger happy. I'm a muppet. Apologies to the OP.

Yes,
Seconded,

I sympathise with Adrian C.

There are some groups where there are so many ads that it becomes tiring
and it can take just one too many to cause a quick off the cuff comment
such as his.

PS.
I would love it, just can't afford it!!!!!!! :-(

You'd better bid on a time machine first, if you want to bid on the
woodworking machine ...

Hmm. 3 years and 9 months late you're asking about the price for an
auctioned item. You've not really got the hang of Usenet or eBay, have you?
