Seems to be the norm that mate , it don't take much for a MOD to send you a pm explaining why it was removed or to ask you to edit some thing

Trigger happy mofo's

You should get a PM telling you why, I did when I got one.

Report him for harassment or sexual misconduct, that'll teach him.

to some though thats enough to get them all exited about giving you some points only in this case points don't make prizes.

i have seen it before on here,people slagging off other people about trading,i even saw the boss refering to how the autotrader works regards it all and he was spot on in what he said.

theres people scrutinising everything on ere for sale and thats a fact

I think we need a volunteer to see how many you can get before you're banned.

This is the link that was posted.

Quite clearly you are selling from a shop, this why it got reported by a paid trader, this is why it got deleted, this is why you got an infraction.

Sorry I didnt PM this reply, but unlike some I dont live on here and have only been popping in and out of here whilst I have been off on holiday.

You will probably also notice that all your other for sale items have been removed by another moderator.

You don't have to be a trader to have a shop on ebay. The user in the ebay link above is not registered as a business on ebay.

Perhaps something should be added to the rules :-

"YOU ARE ALLOWED TO ADVERTISE ITEMS ON EBAY, BUT IF YOU HAVE AN EBAY SHOP (GOD FORBID!!) YOU WILL BE DELETED FROM THE INTERNETS - EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT TRADING AS A BUSINESS ON EBAY!!"

i'm confused looking at loydys ebay shop it looks like he has hasn't got private or buisness account under his blurb, anyone can stick a load of stuff for sale thats viewable in one hit on ebay.

could i do it and call myself cozzfather performance specialist,when really i'm a bathroom trader with a load of toot for sale from past projects and not a proper trader at all
