But its going to lose them a huge amount of money and some serious buyers and sellers.
The knee-jerk that scored the own-goal.
Ebay is a big commercial organisation listed in the stock exchange.
So when they are portrayed as a retailer of illegal arms, they will easily change their policy drastically in order to avoid problems with the UK government...

Same as they accept chinese sellers to make big profits on shippingcosts.
if they would ban this chinese way of working they would probably loose their marketshare there. Its'all 'bout the money...

You cannot imagine that this company once started with a private collector who thought it would be nice to have a place for all kinds of collectors to meet.

Personally I am also fed up with ebay.
If you are interested in Borneo it will take you hours to find a single good item between 99,9% rubbisch being sold from certain areas which you can nor exempt in the seatch machine they offer.
