Here's my 0.02

  Asking for technical advice from the list, getting it, and turning
  around and selling a fixed item, to... eBay, is Most Rude.

  Letting the people on the list save time on searches by making
  small inobtrusive FA announcements: Offers a slight benefit.

  Offering things to the list first, waiting for responses and then
  resorting to eBay is Most Generous.

looks like a balancing act. see: "Ethics"
