Just notice, excuse if this old news, Ebay must have come to it's senses
and lifted it's restrictions on gun parts. Here is a new update list of allowed
firearms parts allowed on Ebay:
-
En bloc clips
-
Barrels
-
Bolts
-
Choke tubes
-
Cylinders
-
Firing pins
-
Hammers
-
Magazines with a capacity to accept 10 rounds or less (high-capacity magazines that can accept more than 10 rounds are not allowed)
-
Slides
-
Trigger assemblies
Have not found eveidence of it yet but I'm guessing Paypay has also
changed it's policies on these items .

I've been an active ebay member since ebay started--
Way back when they first started, it was awesome... Limited market and I was buying gun parts for next to nothing due to no competition... Now, I'm bidding against half the planet....
I actually built a few guns completely from ebay--minus the frames which I got on GB. I built a complete Hi-Standard sport king, and I also was able to build a complete springfield 22 rifle from ebay parts.
Now--ebay is a sellers market for me. I buy very few items anymore.

It's nice they finally reversed that policy. I guess that means I can stop placing bets on when this listing gets pulled.

That sounds like it's still inline with what Ebay's current gun policy probably is. It doesn't look like you can't pay for a DW barrel through Paypal, for example, but blatantly paying for a gun frame would be a no-no.
I'm still pinching myself over this whole deal...seeing BA's on eGouge is almost surreal.

Guess eBay realized that pro 2nd amendment buyer's money is just as green as the libs!
That's right ! I remember reading in the EBay forums shortly after the
restrictions came down that Ebay was losing 4000 sales a day because
of their decision and the average sale between high and low was $40,
now that equals some real pocket change...don't care how big you are.
