If someone asks for a link to buy them, then that isn't an ad. That's someone asking where they can buy them. If OP were putting a call to action straight away in the post, with a call to action directly in one of the photos, then yeah, that's an ad. As an artist and jewelrysmith myself, I see nothing wrong with this post.

An account that ONLY posts/comments on their work is an account used for marketing. Look at their post history - they don't use reddit for any other purpose than to solicit clients. (I went back 30 days; only posts/comments on their stuff. They don't comment in any threads on the subs they submit too - unlike you or I, who are engaging in posts/comments that aren't our own)

Seems like their marketing scheme is working then if you're spending so much time looking at their account.

Is that all you have to say?

It is okay to admit that this is a spam post. I won't fault you for your misguided beliefs.
