Ebay listings cancelled

[Archive]

Posted By: leon

I just had my 5 ebay listings cancelled due to having "luckeycards.com" at the end of my short descriptions. The auctions WILL be going back up by this weekend, with those and EVEN BETTER STUFF, being listed. I wish ebay policed fraudulent listings as much as minor violations. Since I saw other people have full fledged external websites listed I didn't think it was a big deal. Sorry for the inconvenience this might have caused.....Flea Bay is a bunch a BS sometimes..That's why I have been using it less and less to sell.....best regards

btw, they might have done me a favor since I didn't realize, last week when I posted them, that they were ending on Memorial Day weekend. I think this might have been a blessing in disguise....so I guess I should be thankful

I was following one of those, and I just thought you got a good offer. That's ridiculous, Leon, especially because I saw you removed the listed cards from your website listings. What's the problem here, ebay?

instead and the thought police may not pick up on it. Just an idea.

BTW, I think the "fleabay" thing is getting worn out.

Leon,
I find that puzzling that your listings were cancelled for that reason, yet there are some dealers who have their website as their Ebay ID. What is the difference?

$400 or thereabouts for the 3 would be fair

ebay did away with url's as id's a few years ago.

my id used to be abecker@porkchops.com

they gave me a while to change it on my own....i did not...

....and i am now abecker4z4e

they do not want anyone advertising another url on their site.

understandable....but i agree with leon, i wish they would police fakes and fraudulent sellers more....but that is not in ebay's best interest, as fakes and frauds still pay the ebay fees

Ending auctions due to website links is standard for eBay. If you make an 'about me' page I think you can get away with a link there.

Leon,

eBay does not police the auctions, until someone reports a breach of rules to eBay. They are then forced to close the auction down, once a rule violations is brought to their attention and confirmed. It is humorous that someone took the time to e-mail eBay to inform them that you have a web address link in your auction.

Somebody already mentioned it, but you can legally put your links on your About Me page.

That was my immediate thought and I have a suspicion...I think it was a blessing in disguise, as stated....best regards

you can use your web address as your ebay handle. You just can't use the whole URL. You can have the ebay handle luckycards.com, but not www.luckycards.com

that's what I had- luckeycards.com ,nothing else, no other letters or symbols.... I did what I thought I saw others doing....most likely as stated, "someone", probably reported it.....and I am thankful to them for that.... ...
