Can I make a folder in a forum for my users to advertise their ebay links and then alter their links in a way that it is directed to the same auction but through my affiliate link? Yesm users, would be made aware of this and another folder for the ones that want to advertise but don't want to suport the site would be provided.

I didn't found anything against this in ebay affiliate TOS, but my english isn't perfect and I mighty have overlooked something.

Thx.

I think you can do that - sites like tinyURL alter the urls submitted to contain their affiliate link.

However, why would anyone want to do such a thing on your website? Just curious.

The idea is me changing the url with the users permission.

Why would the users post their links?
How are you marketing to the users to get enough of them to come to your site?
Is this the overall purpose / theme for your site?

My website will be store that, among other things, will have a forum. I had the ideia of making a advertise auction folder for users to advertise their auctions and then I remember that I could do what I wrote in the original post.
