I've been asked whether I'd allow adverts for bicycles offered elsewhere if the bicycles in question are being sold with all proceeds going to charity.
I'm going to treat this the same as auctions... providing the proceeds are 100% going to a non-profit or charitable organisation and this is clearly declared, then OK, it's cool.
So if such adverts are posted, then this is the comment that green lights them.
However, there is a risk... if an advert is posted and it wasn't for a non-profit or charitable purpose... then the adverts will be removed, person banned, etc. So the original rule of do not cross-post or spam us remains in place, this exception only applies to non-profits and charity organisations.
PS: The non-profit that asked was http://thebikeproject.co.uk/ I'm totally cool with what they're doing.
