  Is it within the TOS to post links (w/o the image) to historical sports photos/memorabilia being sold on eBay? I wouldn’t be the seller nor would I be affiliated with the seller.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  As long as you’re not compensated in any way and you have the right to re-post the image (that varies, eBay is not a social sharing site) then sure it’s fine.

  However I would be very careful so that your site does not look like all it does is drive traffic to eBay – sites whose only purpose is to drive traffic to another site are against the TOS

  Thank you for all of the advice. The links would only be used to enhance the content of the story posted. So hopefully it’ll be okay.

  I’m sure it will be. I do much the same myself all the time.
