Thread: don't Say Bone on e-bay

Perhaps known by most but I just had a razor( with a bid) pulled by e-bay because I did not say cow bone but only BONE. Hope it was not one of our members bidding on this $2.50 listing. Well, I relisted with COW and hope it works.

You can't say bone on ebay?

Thats funny,have bought/sold alot of Ivory scaled razors on the bay,also a few Ivory Que balls.
The way around it is to say:Scales are not plastic but a beautiful whitish natural material,I know not what.
Those in the know will

I saw a blade with ivory scales on the bay a while ago that described the scales as "real, organic faux ivory".

Organic Faux Ivory thats good.
On another tangent,I sold a complete springfield Rifle on the bay last month,took it apart and ran about 15 separate auctions.

Let me guess - one guy won 14 of the auctions

Price-wise, how did it work out for you vs. selling the whole thing at once via another method?

you are blessed as the ebay police don't allow any fire arm parts I thought. I had a set of 12 ga. chokes de listed because of that.

As a Californian, "chokes" only have one meaning when used as a plural noun:

Chokes rule
You can list most gun parts on the bay,search winchester or any maker,tons of stuff.

You think bone is bad, try selling an antique book bound with human skin. That's a description nightmare.

I'm still curious how that guy sold his virginity on ebay without it being pulled.
