What are these links that are posted up? From reading some of the posts I think they are link to ebay, but would you click on a link that was http://bit.ly/jhfghdfg, if they are ebay links why can't it just say ebay.co.uk.....

bit.ly shortens links so they don't take up about 5 lines of a post. It's the same as tinyurl and goo.gl. The shortest are ow.ly links.
