Lyndon's eBay saga

[Lyndon NoFuture]

Hello Lyndon,

Thank you for taking the time to write to eBay.

I have reviewed your account and your previous email and I hope we can
resolve this matter.

Your items have been ended correctly as we have determined that we will
not permit the listing of any Screwdriver items due to the background
regarding the item. I understand the fact that the item in question is
not related to the offensive Screw driver, however in the interest of
our community we will not permit such listings.

Lyndon, I have reinstated your account as I can see that this is not an
attempt to violate eBay rules but a simple misunderstanding.

I apologise for any inconvenience this has caused you and I must ask you
to refrain from relisting the item in question.

Thank you for your cooperation and I wish you continued success on eBay.

Thank you for being part of the eBay community.

Regards,

Emmanuelle Rice

Shit Lyndon, sorry to hear about all this. The whole thing sucks. And nothing ever seems to happen to the people who are straight-up boneheads selling openly bonehead merchandise, or the shady ones selling bootlegs in a deceptive manner. Case in point, there's a seller up right now who has "Skrewdriver all skrewed up original" listed, but if you read the listing it just barely mentions that it's "an original CD", whatever the fuck that means.
Good luck Lyndon, I hope this all gets put right.

p.s. you still have that Johnny Moped Little Queenie 7"? If so does it have a pic sleeve? I see sleeveless ones more often. If it does let me know how much you want for it.

Hey Carl, cheers for your comments. It's sorted now, and those 90 records ... sorry, 88 records will be back on eBay tomorrow night.

The Johnny Moped 7" does have a pic sleeve I think. If it was in the last list, it'll be back on tomorrow. The last one on eBay sold for £1.49, so I don't expect it to go much higher than that. I can't remember the start price I'd decided on, but it was either £0.99 or £1.99.

Well done Lyndon, I'm glad you followed through and got to the bottom of this. Carl is right there are loads of people selling (very openly) RAC stuff on ebay. A few of them deal only with this type of stuff. The word Skrewdriver turns up everywhere andf nothing seems to be done. One law for them indeed!

[Lyndon NoFuture]

I haven't let this drop yet. I want a clearly defined list of bands/records that will be kicked off eBay (UK) and result in a strike against the seller. I also want this list to appear on within the eBay site.

There are currently two more Skrewdriver LPs on eBay ... one from a power seller!!

cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2262&item=4074161952&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Not facist ... although the Invasion track on Boots And Braces appears on their Voice Of Britain LP ... but they'll be removed and the sellers will get a black mark without knowing that they shouldn't be selling that stuff.

I remember Jim warning me about this after I'd (innocently) listed all my racist stuff early last year. Strangely, that stuff all sold except for the Alabama 7".

Hmmm ... I started it at £2.99! That would have been based on observations on eBay before the last list. Hey Carl, if it doesn't sell, we can come to a deal. If it does ... then just bid higher on it

I've still got 4 Skrewdriver 7"s to lose, you don't fancy listing them for me on ebay Lyndon!

Come to think of it I do remember warning you last time.

See three posts up, Jim. I remember it too. Ha ha ... I'm NEVER going to list Skrewdriver stuff again. I'm not even sure what will happen if I buy any. I quite fancy this LP:

Regarding what I wrote before, I guess there is an Ebay seller status I wasn't aware of -
The (White) Power Seller!
