obviously, this violates ebay policies. who do we email to get this taken down? i'm having trouble finding any info the freepers are all linking to it-and placing fraudulant bids.

5. DONT TURN THEM IN!!! Just contact ebay and congratulate them
on the big fee they earned from this sale! The jackasses have the price up to $99,999,999!! Ebay should let it run and send the freeper a bill for their portion!

3. yes It is a violation
Yes as someone who sells on ebay I think that this does violate the rule of faces. That's why I can't paint a painting of George Bush say picking his nose, or Bill Frist killing cats and sell it on ebay with out someone getting offended and having my auction pulled. They pull auction quite easily. I'm not sure who to complain to as Ive never tried to have someones auctions pulled, But it is easy from what I hear.

conservatives deabte intelligently while lib'ruls debate ata 6 grade level
--paraphrased from Man Coulter

looking over the bid history, it seems that these Mensa members are registering under such legitimate names as John_F_KErry, Rev_AL_Sharpton, and DNC_for_Kerry

you have to give your credit card number and an id to regiter w/ ebay.. they should all get banned

17. Yes you have to use a credit card to reg on ebay
However you can open as many accounts as you wish on that credit card.
All you need is a different email address.

9. Item # 2994305126
Edited on Tue Mar-16-04 06:57 PM by Cobalt Violet
Got to do it! It's got 84 bids. You know what if they dont pull it that person will have to pay ebay a %age of what ever the end bid is. At the price it has gone up to someone will owe ebay quite a bit of money even if ebay doesnt pull it.

10. This seems something a child would do
If this is an adult, being banned from E-Bay would be a good start, maybe some bad press. This seems like a teenage prank to me though. People have informed the management at E-Bay and that will be that. Please do not be upset by this.

15. Yes you are correct
1) Teenagers do have credit cards in this day of age (by hook or crook).

2) There are still immature people in this day of age (just check out my forty-three year old brother).

p.s. Just kidding about my brother. Also if this is an adult, there will be hell to pay.
