Clickable link:
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156067740317(I know I've mentioned this before but I'll make no apology for saying it again, to post a link to an eBay item you should only copy the URL
up to the question mark. If you copy and paste the whole thing, not only does the forum software not make the link clickable but there is a lot of encoded information in that gobblegook of numbers and letters that you probably don't want in a public forum. Note that this applies to almost any link with a
? in it).
Education needed please: How do you get the URL anyway from ebay. If I search and select an item it just says “item” where the URL would normally reside, and I cannot see it anywhere else.
Thanks.
You might need to try another browser Doug. The web page URL should appear in the browser search box. In the case of eBay copying the whole link may include search criteria as Ian mentions, and shown here:

All that's needed is the eBay listing number so you just copy as here:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/385136701855i.e. just the first part up to but not including the first question mark.
Better still you can include link as part of a sentence
here (encompassing one or several words) within url tags to provide same link.
Further embellishment below where an image becomes the link by inserting same within image tags, within url tags as below.

Makes for an illustrative and clean post.
