I JUST WANTED TO LET ALL OF YOU KNOW I DID NOT PULL THE LISTING.

EBAY PULLED IT.

THEY SAID: MISCATEGORIZATION

Bill,

How was it miscategorized? I found it under a ZL-1 search.
You should dig into why eBay closed this auction.......

You sure have me wondering now.

Parts listed under the cars for sale section?

Jeff,

Why kill the auction though? Category is associated.
I didn't know eBay was that anal.....

I thought it was kind of anal too, but ebay pulled one of my auctions for using the word "not" in the heading. They have a list of no-no words (not, like, similar to, resembles) They called it spamming. But they DID send me a notice why it was pulled.

It was listed under Camaro in cars for sale section, not as parts, which is the reason it was pulled.

[nuch_ss396]

I get it. But why is that cause to pull the auction?
I would assume they could just move it - WHO CARES WHERE
IT IS! I care what it is.

Besides, the high dollar figure on this auction should
have told ePay that it had a following. Why cancel it?
Sort of self defeating I think. Just my .02

I believe the seller may still have to pay a listing fee based on his reserve. Ebay still wins.

The car section where the parts were listed is a flat fee catagory. You pay a $40.00 insertion fee - regardless of reserve and a $40.00 final value fee regardeless of the final price if the vehicle sells.

In the parts catagories you pay a fee based on your starting bid and a fee on your reserve based on that amount. Then if the item sells you pay a final value fee which is in the case of these ZL-1 parts would be a stepped fee.

I can tell you that e-Bay would have gotten a ton more money than $40.00 for the listing under the parts section and if the engine had sold, they would have made a pile more money than $40.00 for the final value fee.

If you are a seller don't mess with e-Bay and its fees. It is something that they are darned crappy about.

Hey Steve,

Like someone mentioned later, eBay gets a lot more money for high value parts (percentage based). Cars are sold at fixed prices ($40 or so to list and $40 for the sale of the vehicle).
