we have a ebay area for selected posts. That why they are filtered. Rather than mass posted. (could be a valve cap for example)

I know they have but its rare to see an ebay one...in fact if you have a look, theres only really 3 feed suppliers for ebay on the net.

Theres pro and cons of using these ebay suppliers too - on the one hand it makes it easy to add the data but on the other you're limited to being updated when the supplier updates your ebay source file. The one i've got on f7 is a custom script which means i can update whenever i like and capture auctions quicker...bit of a bonus for 'buy it nows' or the like...

You can do a feed from any source you wish, as you will be aware.

Yes, provided it supports RSS, which unfortunately ebay natively doesn't - hence the need to use third party websites to grab the ebay stuff.
