Are E-Bay experiencing problems with a BAN.

[Henry Stewart]

Gentlemen

 

I have just read a message from E-Bay offering a Petition for signature saying some leading brand names are seeking to ban their goods appearing on E-Bay in a bid to foil counterfeiters; It seems E-Bay view this action as a restriction of fair trade and ask for signatures to oppose this.

Remember edged weapons ????? Pots,Kettles and the colour black spring readily to mind. How would it best be put,"foist on your own petard".

Hi Henry,

 

I got that e-mail as well. I don't know how they have the nerve after the way Nihonto collectors have been treated by Ebay UK. I just thought "Up Yours" and deleted it.

Brian, Henry, No don't just treat it with contempt, although you would be acting appropriately in doing so. I am going to write to the so-called 'eBay' team and point out the similarity between the action of these companies and their own unilateral and cowardly behaviour after the Watchdog team pulled a rigged stunt to justify their rather squalid programme. We shall see if they respond.

Gentlemen;

 

I agree entirely with Ian's reaction.
