Thanks classiccn for finding that rule. It is new to me and I wonder if has been around that long.

Highlighting as an alternative won't work for me. My customers I acquired for my completeness so they can find 'everything'. If I leave out the small ad of teh grandfather with the shop or the larger ad with the illustrator that they like but never gets listed with other 'highlighters', I won't have any customers to speak of, prices would be down, my sell through rate woudl be much lower and I can let go my descriping staff.

I have been a member of Ebay since 1998 and have never known about that. Now I wonder if this rule is the reasons why so many booksellers since recently are leaving Ebay.

With me listing 150 auction a week on Ebay and getting ready to increase that to 200, if they enforce this rule on my auctions, I might as well close down my business. Without the detailed descriptions I would not make any offer a valuebased service, just move paper around, which is a business that is too marginal to live from and would certainly not feed nine people.

I'll see if I can find other distribution channels for my special products than Ebay, since they may very well just not want my business.

Where are the good old times when Ebay was the place for real 'free trade', without virtually no other rules than those the sellers stated on their listings............................Peter
