s/b = starting bid
b/0 = buyout

c/o = current offer

It means starting bid if 5K, buyout price to be posted later.

Now that we know what that means, maybe tell us what lingity means?

Lingity isn't a real word, I suppose it's colloquial for the already colloquialised "lingo".

yeah what cherno said tho.

"B/o later" means that the poster will wait to see how the auction goes until they decide on a reasonable buyout (b/o) price for the item(s) in question.... and post the price "later".

For future reference, Questions and Answers forum is filled with neat resources like that. (That one's in the first sticky under "What does this term or acronym mean? ")

<Edit: Closed for off-topic etymology discussion, since the question's been answered, and a resource posted for future questions.>
