    Is this another spoof?
    It got me looking for 7V listing on Ebay,hence the question.

    No such thing as bad advertising eh?

    ;)

    No, sadly this is not a spoof. I'm genuinely selling an ex-dem set of speakers and genuinely thought eBay was the way to do it.

    eBay's total incompetance is also genuine.

    Good publicity stunt.

    Is Lord the bloke who makes them dodgy subwoofers?

    Well not really. I was planning to put up my "Perfect Crossover" advert to generate some interest and then sell the speakers at a good price. Sod publicity (on this occasion).

    Just to give you an update (belatedly as I've had no phone line or Internet for a few days)...

    eBay have reinstated me once more and have suggested, once more, that I re-list the advert. They also tell me that: "Please note that I have left a note on your account to pre-warn our representatives to take caution in ending listings."

    I am thinking about whether I want to try again with eBay or not.

    Banning is a little harsh, though I did often wonder why somthinhg which looked like Sellfield neclear reprocessing plant kept appearing :eek

    I have seen far worse stuff on ebay though such as the same people selling dodgy pirated copies of software and seem to get away with it.
