E-bay,
These mags were made before 1994. They are legal under Federal and State law! You allow pornography to be auctioned, but not items used for legitimate sporting use or for American citizens to defend themselves against terrorists and criminals. Ever hear of the Bill Of Rights? Ever hear of Natural Law? You cancelled my auctions, now you can CANCEL MY ACCOUNT! I will no longer buy and sell on e-bay! AND I will encourage ALL my friends to do likewise. Furthermore,I am going to post this e-mail on every PRO-GUN board in the NATION. I will not do this alone. THOUSANDS of gun owners will circulate this. WE ARE TIRED OF BEING PUSHED AROUND! When e-bay comes to it's senses, I will do business again. GUNOWNER BOYCOTTS WORK! Gun owners, please send an e-mail to e-bay now [email protected] . Circulate this to your friends EVERYWHERE! Post it EVERYWHERE! LET'S BOYCOTT 'EM!!!

with us.  However, the sale of high capacity magazines (magazines that hold 10 or more rounds) are not allowed on eBay.  It is also required that you state the capacity of any magazine you list on the site. Therefore, we have ended this auction and all fees have been credited to your account.

These auctions were ended for the following reason:
1.Member does not state the capacity of the magazines. Member only states that it will "hold" ten rounds. Image also shows 20 rounds of ammo next to each magazine.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please be aware future incidents  of this nature
can lead to the suspension of your account. We value you as a member
of our community and wish to continue this relationship, so we must
ask you to refrain from any violations of the Listing Policies or User

We thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may
have on our existing listing policies.

Regards,

Sooooo.. 31/2 years ago the city of Seaside Oregon BANNED gun shows in the city. This despite the fact that shows had been held there by Rose city gun collectors (contact Ken Glass)for 11 years. Oh well, thats the rules right? WRONG! I organized a boycott (it went international! was I shocked),Thousands of liberty loving people responded all across America and overseas.Are you tired seeing gun owners being put down (and out)? Fight back! Seaside folded in 5 weeks! Whom, I'm not gonna play word games with ya! Ya wanna be a sheep.. Just go Baaaa..;>) thanks for makin the link...

Here's the secret to not getting your mag auction kicked off eBay: Just say this is a 10 round mag in your ad, put the measurements in there and a picture. Most people who know anything about these mags will know what they are buying. eBay is general is a patsy to the Anti-Gunners (in my opinion), but it is their rules, you just have to find a way around them. I just glad they allow any gun-related items at all. They used to sell lowers on there, until some idiot informed them the lower part of an AR15 is a firearm. doh!

Lib,

While the others are correct that E-bay has a right to set it's own policy, you are also correct in your view that a boycott is the way to get them to change their minds.  They sell "adult oriented" material that cannot be shipped to some states/areas (not that I would know about anything like that!!), and mags are legal in most states.

A boycott would be a good idea, and it would also be a good idea for anyone participating in the boycott to contact e-bay and explain (very civily, of course) why they are boycotting.  It might even be a good time to do a boycott, as a lot of the .com's are in trouble now, and it might scare them.  

I will contact them myself about participating in the boycott.

You may wish to auction on auctionarms.com or gunbroker.com

How much were you looking for on the 16" upper?

Thanks beer, just got a note from a guy in Florida telling me about the 2 yr. old boycott. I never heard of it! I've been a buyer on e-bay for about 1 1/2 yrs.NO MORE! I know boycotts work (This one is just a bigger gorilla than the last!). Haven't been doin gun stuff on the net much (am a newbie here), and never do these boards. A friend (and someone most of you know, OSI) turned me on to this site. Been watching, and see maturity (for the most part) and GOOD humor. I aint a cry baby, I'm a 53 yr. old 'Nam vet, 100% PTSD. I been around the block a time or two,(Sinai too!),just like some of you guys.

Hey new guy, don't piss off the people you are seeking help from.

First you show up and assume we will all bandwagon your cause.

Second you lecture us on principles and laws.

Then when asked for clarification or your "usage" you get bent. BTW, we already knew about the Bill of Rights and Natural Law.

Then you start calling people fucking sheep. I think rather than finding support you may actually get boycotted yourself.

Next time just answer the fucking question.

Personally I'm not boycotting ebay for two reasons.

1. I make my living on ebay.
2. It's fucking stupid. That's right up there with boycotting gunbroker because you can't sell beany babies there. And really it's even dumber than that because ebay lets you sell gun shit there, just not ALL gun shit. Get it? It is dumb.

Since you're all gung ho lets make a stand here's what you should do.

1.Boycott every grocery store and food maker that is anti-gun.
2.Boycott every gas station that is anti-gun
3.Dont' watch any anti gun TV stations and don't use any anti gun ISP's.
4. Never vote for a Republican or a Democrap again, both are clearly anti gun.
5. Don't ever work for an anti gun company.
6. Don't use any services owned by anti gunners.(ie; phone, elcetricity etc.)
7. Have fun sitting next to your campfire drinking creek water.

Alternative B.
Go back to posting at assault web.

Really though I'm just messin' with you, but you can't cry everytime someone doesn't let you sell gun stuff on their property, it's just not based in reality.

This is really old news - Ebay has been like this for a few years now.  Why do you think Auctionarms.com, etc. sprung up?

But instead of realizing that this ebay policy dates back to when Clinton was president, you get all bent out of shape, start multiple threads, and post in ALL CAPS with lots of exclaimation points!!!!!!!!

liberty86 - you're in serious need of a clue.  Next time try not to act like such moron and maybe someone will actually care about what you say.  If you had anything interesting to say, that is.
