Welcome to eXceem

Although there always seem to be a lot of those listings, it is actually against FJ and eBay's T&C to sell your ref link. I can think of 1 member off hand that has received her iPad from freebiejeebies - See Here

Also it is against eXceem's rules to post your ref link on here. If you create a website which has a link back to eXceem then linking that in your sig is allowed.

It is not against FJ's T&Cs, only eBays. You aren't allowed to list a digital item, it has to be a physical item that can be posted. Try buying something small and cheap in bulk, and selling individually at cost price, and include a leaflet with your website address on.

You are specifically not allowed to link to referral schemes in eBay's terms and conditions, so whatever you are selling you are not allowed to put your ref link or your website link in your listing.
