mike31093 Valued Member United States 354 Posts	Posted 09/21/2023 08:31 am I've see a listing here of community members who sell on ebay. If I ever thought of buying via ebay the seller would have to be on that list. Report this Post to the Staff

CalzoneManiac Pillar of the Community United States 2233 Posts	Posted 09/21/2023 10:44 pm We have computers in our pockets and can easily look up that an SBA, unless it's a 79 Wide Rim, 1981, or proof strike, is only worth a dollar in circulated condition. But we live in a sue-happy world and thus ebay and other vendors have to have protections to cover their derriere. Look at how many ads you get for lawyers for fire foam, hernia mesh implants, mesothelioma, Camp LeJeune, etc. Report this Post to the Staff
