[QUOTE="SES50, post: 161166, member: 7753"] Here is the responce that I got from ebay this morning. Hello Sherman, Thank you for your recent email to Matt Halprin in regard to changes to our Firearms, Weapons and Knives policy. He has asked that I review your email and respond on his behalf. At eBay we take the safety of our community and our marketplace very seriously. We have a Trust and Safety team which consists of more than 2,000 experts in online security and safety who are located around the globe. This team is dedicated to ensuring that our marketplace is a safe and trusted place for buyers and sellers to engage in trade. We value an open and transparent marketplace; if items are legal to buy and sell in an unrestricted manner we allow them on our site. However, there are some items that while legal, may not be safe for our marketplace. In these instances, our applicable policies go beyond the law to ensure that our marketplace is safe. Currently we do not allow actual firearms on the site. After careful consideration our executives and our Trust and Safety team determined that any item required to fire a gun has no place on eBay. All of our policies are under constant review. As the Internet and the way our communities use the Internet evolves, our policies and our marketplace must evolve with it. We determined that this policy change was in the best interest of promoting a safe marketplace for all members. Sincerely, Rebekah Long Office of the President --Original Message-- From: Sherman Seelinger Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2007 1:57 PM To: Halprin, Matt Subject: Firearms Parts Mr. Halprin, I just read about your new policy toward firearms related parts. It is a shame that you guys are so intent to regulate legally own objects through your website. With the many issues that I and many others have had with your website in the last couple years you are really working hard to push people away from using eBay. It is a shame and was a one time such a great tool. Thank You Sherman [/QUOTE]
