Re: [MOPO] Ebay and their offensive policy

[Moviemem Original Movie Posters]

Bruce
I still have two eBay Stores but the vast majority of my sales are through my 
website which I am very thankful for. I first started selling on eBay in 1997 
and have been close to closing my stores but now have compromised a bit by 
using the “Time Away” holiday option regularly. That actually works OK because 
it gives me regular breaks from eBay and it also makes the listings more 
prominent when I end the “time away” and reopen the store.

The fees are high but the thing that I really find difficult is the Managed 
Payment system. It is a nightmare for businesses to navigate when doing 
quarterly tax returns and that is enough of a reason to put many sellers off 
eBay altogether.

Regards

John

To all of you who still sell on eBay

I see they have raised their fees massively since my days there.  Is it still 
worthwhile overall selling there?

I have thousands of stills listed.  On Monday Ebay knocked off an Al Jolson in 
black face.  I didn't have it listed as black face, but they took it off as 
offensive.  I can see that could be a problem so no big deal.  Then today they 
knocked off 3 Hattie McDaniel stills from GWTW.  I am sure some could find her 
role offensive, but she was a great actress playing a part, and a good part of 
a strong person.  I respected her acting ability.  She was not a Stepin Fetchit 
type of actor, even though he was playing a character.  I am white, but I would 
be offended that they are trying to eliminate a great respected actress from 
the Golden Age.



Not trying to start a race conversation, just my rant toward the policy.  Tony

Re: [MOPO] Ebay and their offensive policy

[Tom Martin]

I se your point Tony however I think Theresa knee jerk reaction on all 
sides in media..because of past issues..I just tried to think if my 
family chichis Sicilianon dads side and Fromm Bermuda on moms a 
UKisland..would I be offended.well Bermuda was the 1stplace that 
Portugal used as a port for slaves in the 1500s//and they dontliketotalk 
about the history all as I guess they are ashamed.. they're part fit..we 
need to consider tho that jews. asians. Blacks and many races were also 
slave//thepope just asked forgiveness for thenaitive Indians in Canada 
as all races have been  abused through themes..theones that stand 
outlast 100 years seem to be the ww2 Jews..,I thinks good we honor all 
races and colors and respect them and see that many were depicted in odd 
ways..Black memorabilia was collected by many and agree some is 
offensive that they made fun of a raceI had ww2 postcards that also 
made fun Japan during ww2 so it is part of history but still could 
offend..
it has become quite sensitive//my best answer is we ned to Forgive eBay 
andothersocial media as they are trying to meet everyones needs and 
concerns... social media has become so scary...


all the bested yes Jolson and hattie are history and should be 
respected.. so perhaps there is a disclaimer they could add on items 
like yours to avoid conflict


Hope that helps from a old movie guy...Iknow they renamed the Lillian 
Gish theater in Bowling greens the dw Griffith Birth of a nation film 
was frowned upon also forts connection to the KKK..
