eBay, an idea that started out with good intentions, to serve the
internet community has gone the way of so many other internet
services
of it's type. They think they're GOD, (along with many on these
groups
who think they are almost God, or NEWGROUP POLICE at the very least).

eBay is now only concerned with MILKING the very MOST money they can
from it's customers. Try to call them on the phone? Are you
kidding?
Send them an e-mail? Good luck. They don't care, and why should
they,
they're the only game in town. U.S. Capitalism at it's best, but
more
about THAT later...

I recently put a UNIDEN 296D and 796D scanners on eBay for sale, and
also made FA posts on these groups. Luckily, the 296D sold early
with
BUY IT NOW, and for some strange reason, the 796D was bid to a price
past what the original BUY IT NOW pricing was. Yep, there's that
good
ole US capitalsim at work again. No one twists arms to bid that
high,
and as far as I know, ther is NO mechanism on eBay to STOP a bidder
from
bidding an item TOO HIGH.

The auction was to end today. I would have had a decent return for
my
scanner, and the buyer would have a brand new, in box, never opened,
never used scanner.

But yesterday eBay replaced my auction with this notice......

***This listing (5759983900) has been removed by eBay or is no
longer
available. Please make sure that you've entered the item number
correctly.
If the item was removed by eBay, please consider this transaction
canceled***

I DID NOT CANCEL THE AUCTION.

eBay offered NO explanation as to why they removed this auction. As
far
as I know, the 796D is NOT banned for sale on eBay. They cancel your

auction, but they DO NOT refund your listing fee. They send you NO
e-mail explaining the removal. NONE. I sent them an inquiry, but so

far no response. This is NO WAY to do business.

I am now out the listing fees, and the financial reward of the
winning
bid. eBay, or SOMEONE hurt me bad in this, for no legitimate
reason....

Other then what I THINK happened.

Some NO LIFE, MISERABLE lurker in these groups, basically a RAT ,
SCUMBAG dropped a dime on my newsgroup listings to eBay, and they
removed my auction. If you check my newsgroup post, and it's
responses,
you can formulate some potential suspects for yourself.

Day in and day out these newsgroups are LOADED with nonsensical SPAM,

and hore**** to beat the band, and nothing is ever done about it.
Because someone was basically JEALOUS that my auction would bring a
few
bucks more then THEY thought it was worth, they act like a RAT
*******
Newsgroup Cops and cause me harm.

Well folks, the gloves are off. I will offer the scanner on a
straight
FOR SALE basis 80 ZILLION times on these groups. Since it is
unfortunately the only game in town, if I have to, I will re-post it
on
eBay, but will follow eBay's rules and NOT post any FA on the

alt.radio.scanner,rec.radio.scanner,rec.radio.swap ,alt.online.marketing.ebay
newsgroups, not even rec.radio.swap.

However, rest assured, that I will make a second vocation of
reporting
ANY and ALL FA eBay posts (especially by Kris Baker) I find to eBay
ad nauseum.
Even those on the rec.swap group. eBay rules DO NOT allow posts even
on a swap
or for sale newsgroup. So, all you fellow hobbyists who get censored
or DUMPED
by eBay like I did, thank your fellow ASSHOLE lurker for it.

Yes, this was LONG and I am ****ED. Thanks for reading.
