Chris, please just post the item number for these

TinyURL or the like for the links. The darned eBay links wrap
several lines in my email reader and require me to dig the number out
manually.

wasn't possible in this case!) rather than just posting a "look at this"
link.
I rarely waste the CPU cycles to fire up a browser unless I have some idea of
what I'm going to be looking at!
p.s. I think most modern-ish apps will make sense of URLs between <>
characters and not wrap them across multiple lines; I think it is some
standard or other, but there's no guarantee that *everything* from the last
ten years will handle it :-)
