Hello, I hope you all will forgive this bit of shameless promotion ... something I don't normally do, as I am not really in favor of publishing links to eBay auctions in the forums.

However, since these are my auctions, I'm making an exception, particularly since both these listings are for rather extraordinary things. I'm hoping you'll all have a look. Thanks!

First, here's a "Hoover Merchandising" binder from cir. 1967. (See link.)

This large binder contains repair and parts information for vintage Hoover Vacuum Cleaners, Polishers, Blenders, Fry Pans, Electric Toothbrushes, Toasters, Can Openers, Hair Dryers, Upholstery Shampooers, Shoe Polishers, Can Openers, Washers, Coffeepots, Mixers, Blenders, Toasters, and Electric Irons!

I swear, eBay gets lamer by the minute...

I had no sooner listed these two items, spending several hours creating them, than eBay rejected them. Why? Because I listed cash, sent securely, as a payment alternative.

Well, the eBay Nazis have determined that cash is no longer an acceptable form of payment, so they cancelled my listing. Nice of them to mention this little detail on the "list item" form so as to save me a lot of time and hassle, eh.

Stay tuned for a relisting, assuming I jump through all the right hoops this time.

FYI, Here's what the emails from eBay stated, in pertine

eBay Listing Removed: Accepted Payments (=LS &12362 JM112551673)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Dear kittytwitty,

You recently listed the following auction-style listing:

180127521354 - VINTAGE "HOOVER MERCHANDISER" BINDER CONTENTS
180127532561 - ELECTROLUX GOLDEN JUBILEE BANK & CLEAN SWEEP PACKETS

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The listing was removed because it violated the eBay Accepted Payments policy. The violation occurred when you included the following information in your listing:

" You can send cash, but at your own risk. "

All fees related to this listing have been credited to your account. We also notified members who placed bids on the item that the listing has been canceled.

Safety and convenience are the most important aspects of eBay?s policy on payments. Our goal is to ensure safe online shopping and to encourage members to use online payment methods that are secure, easy to use, and reliable. They should also offer high levels of protection for both buyers and sellers.

Because cash payments do not offer the same level of protection and convenience as online payment methods, members are generally not permitted to accept cash as a payment method on eBay. Sellers are permitted to accept cash on delivery (COD) but only for in-person transactions. Personal checks, money orders, cashier's checks, certified checks, and bank-to-bank transfers are also permitted.

[see link below]

Please note: violation of this or other eBay policies may result in forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings, limits on account privileges and account suspension.
