    As the title suggest, I'd like to advertise my ebay auction locally in our hometown. Is this against there TOS? Any ideas on how to go about it? like can I send them from craiglist to one of my own sites and then to the ebay auction..and I wonder if theres a way I can incorporate my own affiliate id for ebay into the page on my site?

    Craigslist = A platform where buyers and sellers can interact
    eBay = A platform where buyers and sellers can interact

    Now tell me, do you think Craigslist would be happy with you posting a item selling in a different buy/sell site?

    No they don't like that and it will get flagged.
