Speaking of Ebay and shipping, It is terrible the number of complaints I get
from customers regarding the way their shipment arrive at destination in the
USA. the envelopes are opened,the boxes ripped open , the contents damaged
or missing. US Customs really do a great job on even small 6 X 6 bubble
shipping envelopes. They are ****ing Paranoid scumbags if you ask me.
I receive shipments from the states that are literally intact yet inspected
by Canada customs agents.
Years ago I use to sent clothing and food items in Russia to friends we
knew. Even they received those packages intact and they lived in a communist
block country.
So I dont think that Ebay are the only ones that think they are GOD. The
lunatics at the US border have a serious ego problem also if you ask me.

I've advertised FAs here just recently, my auctions weren't cancelled.
I'm wondering if somehow, "maybe" someone sent E-Bay - the non tech
wizards they are, a notice that perhaps your scanner was modified or
whatever, to make them think it was illegal????? Just a thought. I've
seen other FAs in here as well, none of them complained of having their
auctions cut short.

Good thought. I was thinking the same thing. We all know it is impossible
for the 796D to be continuous coverage or modded, but eBay will go by
whatever someone tells them.

This is why I can't wait to see their response.

The ONLY auction "I" had cut short, was a "linear" I was auctioning off -
listed as NOT working, the finals pulled, for parts. I listed it I
believe for 10 meters, yet they pulled it. No big deal... But they've
never pulled my auctions for posting FA.

If NO NE dropped a dime to them about you posting FA, they will never
bother you. DO you really think eBay scours the newsgroups for
violations? They turn a blind eye until someone makes a complaint, then
they have to act.


IF you have suspects in mind, I suggest you take it up with them. Why
turn vigilante against the whole group?

I have A suspect in mind, but can never prove it. eBay will not turn over
the info on the complainant.

No vigilante, just making sure that what was good for Goose Dan, is good
for the gander.

You can thank the no-life asshole among you for it...
