Todd,

I have to agree with you. I don't think I've seen anyone say that they have
something on e-pay, and would you go bid on it please....until now. Much
different situation than announcing to the list that you are selling
something before giving up and hauling it to a hamfest or putting it up for
auction.

I wrote ebay about those black beauties up for auction. I told them they
were fire hazards and should be pulled from auctions because of liability
concerns. Haven't heard from them in 3 days now. I read where epay has a big
team of screeners and lawyers going thru the auctions every day to weed out
the sex and body parts ads.
