eBay no longer allowing sales of curses, spells, or potions

Post by Pigeon » Fri Aug 17, 2012 6:55 pm

Starting in September bidders won't be able to snipe curses, spells, or potions on eBay anymore. The company has decided to ban the sale of magic and magic items. “EBay regularly reviews categories and updates our policies based on customer feedback,” a statement from the company read. “We are discontinuing a small number of categories within the larger metaphysical subcategory, as buyers and sellers have told us that transactions in these categories often result in issues that can be difficult to resolve."

Anyone buying this stuff deserves to be ripped off. Maybe a person lack of results from a purchase is actually someone else's spell.

I agree. All part of the learning process (there is no santa). I guess they should cap the price at least.

Yeah, capped at zero.

I could have sold some cursing. I would have priced it cheap and went for volume.

Economies of scale. Very good.

I have some rocks here. Maybe I can sell "as is" without the magic hype.
