IMO, this is more like me telling a few freinds of mine that I want 
something on eBay, and not to bid against me. I might agree with you if 
we set up a *community* expressely for this purpose; however, since 
we're just talking about a list of names -> eBay IDs, among friends who 
are already in a community with one another. Just my take. (Of course, 
the bigger this list of names/IDs gets, the less it will resemble a 
group of friends and the more it will resemble a cartel.)
