Quoted: I just won an auction for a couple hundred pieces of 10mm brass on the E'Gay. This auction was a relist after it did not sell previously. I contacted the seller and offered a price I was willing to pay and the seller then posted a "buy it now" to suit. I "bought it now" and paid immediately using E'Gay's homosexual partner GayPal. Well, now I have an email from the 'Gay saying that the auction is cancelled for violating their rules.
I know now that the selling of evil, unprimed cartridge brass on that site is not allowed after a bit of research, but how did they find the auction only after I won it? Were they knowingly willing to take the sellers listing and re-listing fees knowing they could cancel the transaction later if it sold? Does the 'Gay keep the sellers listing fee?
What is the great fear shared by the two Gays in question? What will happen when I open a box of 10mm brass? Does EGay and his GayPal believe I'll be overwhelmed by ill-will for my fellow man and open fire upon breaking the seal?
What intellectually retarded rationale do these pansies have for banning something as inherently benign as lumps of brass? It would abide by the rules to sell or buy a brass dildo large enough to hunt elk with there, but no cartridge brass!
Am I over-reacting? Are the 'Gay twins as gay as I believe |
Sigghhh No eBay does not take the listing fees and keep them for an item they do not allow to be sold.
As I have explained these are policies forced on the two companies by regulators and Visa and Mastercard. They are simply not allowed to offer firearms or shooting related material. Simple as that believe it or don't.
I'd say that if you think eBay and PayPal both large corporations would purposefully piss off whole segments of the population just for shits and grins you need to overcome the following bits of reality.
The former CEO of eBay and most of the exec staff are conservative or at least moderates
None of us that started PayPal are anti gun. Many of us shoot together often.
There is no upside to arbitrarily being anti gun there is no benefit both in PR or revenue there is only bad PR and bad revenue
If they were anti gun you'd think they'd try to capitalize on such a stupid move by at least publicly speaking out against guns and taking a stand.
Some of us are lifetime NRA members our donations actually go to gun causes not anti gun causes.
There is not 1 benefit to having anti gun policies.
There are some pretty big benefits to abiding by the rules put on them and actually many many many payment companies on the internet. But folks will continue to overlook the fact that lil fact.
Anyhow none of this matters if you gents think PayPal and ebay are anti gun and won't listen to reason that is good to go too and I am sure they'll do fine regardless.
And the OP gets big points for the use of eGay and GayPal.. I have never seen that before very original and is an extremely adult way to get an extremely adult idea across.
Well done OP.
