eBay: Allied intrest

[AndyMa]

Clint,
I entirely respect your right to an opinion.
But have you considered that Ed might not have either the time (or maybe the knowledge) to caption each link?
I wouldn't know how to start trawling Ebay for photos, and neither would I be able to caption them all, as I don't know enough about most of the subject matter. In addition, I wouldn't have the time or the inclination, as I spend enough time on various forums as it is.
To me, this format is an easy win. I get to see things of interest without having to do any work myself other than browsing the links.
There is little point in discussing this further, as we're clearly not going to agree.
However, as every other person who has commented has, like me, supported Ed, you can surely accept that you hold a minority view on this. Whether you continue to think "your view" is correct is entirely your right.

Well said Andy.

I agree with Clint’s point that this would be a stronger thread if we all posted into it but, like you, I do not have the time or the skills to do this for the benefit of a wider audience.

I quite like the lottery of never knowing quite what you will find here. I can confirm that posts in this thread and it’s equivalent in the Luftwaffe forum have led me to photos that I have subsequently added to my collection so I am very grateful to Ed and others who do make the effort to post here. Please carry on doing so.
