A No. How else will the OP know he alienates a good percentage of his audience? What makes you think he’s doing that?
Because people are busy. They will click on a provided link, but don’t want the extra hassle of "looking something up" to (usually) be disappointed in what someone else thinks is clever/worthy of attention.

I’d rather paste in a number, than try to click on one of the bloated, split URLs that’s usually posted. Kris

Name eleven people that don’t want the extra hassle of "looking something up". I’m one…. send me the link and I’ll take a look. Send me the item number, I’ll just wonder what the point of the post was. (It’s really a stupid argument as posting a link is an extremely easy task… maybe even easier than typing (or cut/pasting) the item number)

Hard? No. Inconvenient and rude to expect 1,000 people to do as you suggest above? Yes. Choice: 1. Click on link provided in the post by the person who is asking you to look at something. or…. 1. Highlight the eBay item number in post. 2. Right-click mouse. 3. "Copy" highlighted text. 4. Open new browser window. 5. Go to eBay website. 6. Paste item number on search window.
