John,

That isn't what I read or understood. I think the request was to provide a little more information regarding the auction than just list the auction number. Something along the lines of maybe providing a brief description of the item so that people can decide whether to go check it out. Otherwise, it requires running over to ebay, doing and advanced search for the item number to see a listing on a bike that isn't my size. Doesn't seem like it would be too much more work to slightly modify the post to describe the item.
