good luck on the sale and thanks for letting us know of these manifolds....they look like a real nice set.

Sorry Rick, but I don't agree. A 'no reserve' auction has no set price & therefore does not meet the criteria for placing an ad here IMO. It's just a 'best offer' scenario. Parts or cars, these are rules that have been established by Tom in order to avoid any misunderstandings.
I think all ebay ads referenced here need a 'buy it now' or reserve price listed here, or just leave it on ebay....that's fair

So if he listed these manifolds with a $20 reserve price this would be ok to you, knowing full well that these would bring more? Cut me a break.

Matt, my statement is not really about these parts, but about ebay ads in general that are referenced here without a firm BIN/reserve price.
I see no reason that a member can't post an ebay link as long as it states... 'sYc members. the reserve on these parts is (for example) $1000. Good luck bidding'.
Seems like the moderators catch the 'cars for sale' ads that aren't priced, but 'parts for sale' gets overlooked. JMO

What I meant to say was that once an auction meets a set reserve price, it is a "no reserve" auction from then on.

To place an ad here 'all items must be priced' per Tom's site rules. 'No reserve' ads can be shill bid by friends of the seller in order to keep the auction moving & to get the seller as much as possible (I am NOT suggesting that Robbie's having that done with these parts).
I think these are simple rules to follow which benefit the membership...list the price & you get a free ad. No price & it gets deleted.
Do you remember the Olympic Gold Yenko listing

Anyway, I guess we need further clarification from management regarding members ebay listings & auction links
