Links policy and link to photos in message

Need help: potential buyer asked ( through eBay message system) about link to photos showing all possible color and decor options. This is more than 5 photos allowed as attachments.

 

May I give him a link to my own website (no selling there, information only) or it should be only image hosting link?

 

I have read Links policy, it seems that link to own website may be only in "About Me" page.

On the other hand, links to specifications are allowed.

 

If you can, clarify this for me, please.

You can send whatever links you want, eBay will strip them out if they don't like it.

 

Another option would be to "stitch" the images together to reduce the number of images or send multiple messages (if eBay allows).

"potential buyer asked"

 

To avoid problems with eBay's policies, ask your buyer for his/her email address where the links can be sent without eBay's interference.

Several times potential buyers (custom orders) sent me in messages their email addresses, most were deleted by eBay, very few passed. But thanks for the thought. It seems to be safer stick to image hosting.
