So I created a new thread on the same board with an 'attention' grabbing title to get recent new starters who had been blown away on eBay without warning to vote. Within an hour the whole thread was vaporised, no warning no comments so I left my own comment on booklady's thread.
At least one of this epic-threader group saw it but it was a shorter appearance than the snow fairy.

Shocked a few people because it was thought that only eBay did that sought of thing
