This is the stupidest thing, but... they 
cancelled them because I put a link to the 
Doujinshi Mailing list in my doujinshi auctions, 
and the Cards and Shitajiki mailing lists in my 
card and shitajiki auctions.

I thought it would be a good way to get the word 
out about the mailing lists so that we had more 
people to trade with (especially on the Cards 
mailing list side). I have been putting these 
links in my auctions for more than 6 months.

Well, eBay said I was "stealing user information" 
and "violating eBay's privacy clause" by "forcing 
people to sign up for my mailing list".

I was like... huh? It's Yahoo Groups (eGroups) 
for goodness sake. No one can force you to join 
that, click on the link and it says "do you want 
to join?" you have a choice. It's not like I was 
freaking taking all my bidders' names and forcing 
them to sign up.

Secondly, they ended my auctions because I had 
the following in my auctions:
"PayPal: We do accept PayPal, but it's not our 
favorite method as it ends up costing both you 
and I extra fees."

They accused me of trying to charge people fees 
for using PayPal. NOTHING in my statement says 
that, in fact we purposfully STOPPED doing that 
after our last round of auctions and changed the 
wording so that it said the above which meant 
that we didn't like PayPal and we don't want to 
use it because WE end up paying fees to PAYPAL 
and the buyers do too when they sell something 
(fees to PAYPAL! not me!)

God I am so pissed -_-

Because of this, I couldn't keep bidding on two 
cels I really wanted on YJ because there was no 
way I would have enough money in time to pay for 
them ;_;
