weird question

I am selling a sim card and got this question

Dear ebayer,

Apologies for my approach, but if you are by any chance looking for competitive trade prices on a wide range of official SIM packs, please have a look at my very keenly priced ebay items at ******

If you have any queries please feel free to contact me at ****** (email)
or 08707 ****** (phone)
Regards ****

Is that even allowed?

TIA

Laura

    No its not, when are viewing this in my messages on the right hand side of the page there is a link to report this type of message. Click report message and it will ask you to select a reason for reporting I would select the one that says something like unsolicited commercial email. I get this type of message whenever I sell anything branded.

    Its not allowed but give them a break if they look legit.

    I used to trade guitars and half of us all emailed each other looking for a sale. Maybe its annoying to receive them if your not interested but us sellers get a lot of junk messages too so its swings n roundabouts.
