I would be more interested as to why the OP is posting a link that goes
through a paid per click advertiser.

News to me...I used TinyURL for the reasons below.

Seems like a lot more trouble than just posting a link to eBay.

I think you'll see why presently. I know nothing of pay-per-click
advertisers. I use TinyURL because it's easy and free. The point of the
service, like others of its ilk, is to make posting and emailing links like
this...

....less cumbersome. At 127 characters, such links tend to get truncated.
The above is what I C&P into the box at http://tinyurl.com .

If you prefer, there's this:

Is the pay-per-click money really that much to you?

I think you owe me an apology, and a broader perspective on life. Even if I
*had* something to gain from using TinyURL, you're bitching about something
that's...well, of absolutely no significance.
