Re: [meteorite-list] My ebay suspension.
Hi Dean and All, Why not try amazon.com? You might list a few meteorites under Industrial Scientific and see what happens.It might take a while to build a meteorite base but if you want to diversify, why not? I've sold a few things there (not meteorites) and it takes a bit of getting used to (in fact, at first it's downright cumbersome). It's a totally different way to sell things from ebay.It's not auction based but more like Buy-It-Now. As of now, I see only meteorite posters for sale there so you may have the entire playing field all to yourself. Good luck! Carl If this works out, just remember who you got this idea from! If this DOESN'T work, blame el nino. _ Insert movie times and more without leaving Hotmail®. http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/QuickAdd?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutorial_QuickAdd_062009 __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Re: [meteorite-list] My Ebay suspension
I have had 5 people email me privately with a message saying something to the effect of Whats up with pearls - and could meteorites be next, so I will email the group rather than individually? Answer is be afraid - be very afriad. Apparantly the laws concerning the export and import of pearls are complicated so ebay has decided to no longer allow them (But there are still some listed on ebay and the Trust and saftety department told me it would be a security violation to give me this information - because people might use the info to circumvent those rules) so who the hell knows what ebay is up to. Even their own employees are kept in the dark (Presumably for security reasons) I was told that it is illegal to export pearls from French Polynesia directlty into the USA (Whats up, has obama got a new dislike for the french? - if I promise to never ever again use the term French Fry can I then list tahiti pearls again?) and that I should look into the laws regarding pearls in my own country before I sell anymore. So, I am told that conflicting and complicated laws are responsible for pearls getting prohibited from ebay. Hm. Complicacated and conflicting laws? That wouldent also apply to Meteorites, artifacts, coins, collectibles - not to mention leather pants (Countries where cows are sacred) or a free press in general in some countries would it. Ebay was started to sell laser pointers if I remember correctly. Maybe eventually thats all that will be allowed again. Me thinks that people should start diversifying from ebay as quickly and as much as possible. Paypal to (Nobody has ever had problems with paypal of course). I now have 1700 auctions that disapeared and ebay tells me sorry, shit happens, now just be a good little boy and relist them all again so we can collect more ebay fees - and if we decide to end them all without telling you why and keeping all those fees again, well, shit happens.

I plan to spend the next 7 days getting some shopping cart websites built and trying out other sites to sell stuff. Anybody got any ideas where else to list stuff? Anybody know somebody with ebay who will talk to me? Apparantly it was my pearl auctions that was somehow misrepresented but its not possible to find out why. It sgoing to be a pain relisting 1700 auctions.

Re: [meteorite-list] My Ebay suspension
Wow, that sucks man. Ebay really is such a joke anymore. They do nothing about people who sell fake meteorites unless you really give them hell, yet they do things like this. I was listing links to my website (before I even had it set up with prices and such) and Ebay pulled something like 25 of my listings about a year ago. It seems someone was reporting my listings for violating ebay policy about links... I then relisted them and included links to the Meteorite database, those were pulled becouse you could supposedly link from that to places that had meteorites for sale - that were not even mine! I have been trying to get a power seller status to reduce the costs of fees, but for someone like me that really does not sell much, its pretty hard to do - I loose something like 15-20% of my sales to fees... I wish Erics meteorite auction site would have taken off, or someone would come up with a viable ebay alternative that would do well. anyway, I hope you are able to get whatever it was worked out. It sucks ebay will suspend you but not provide better information as to the reason.

Sorry to hear about this Dean. I suggest that you write a letter to the CEO. Not an email, a letter, and send it registered mail.
