Item # in question: 6204547764
This item was ended, citing a reason of "Promoting illegal activity". However,
the "casino chips" listed are redeemed just the same as "camel cash". There is
no gambling involved. If the asshole that ended my auction was familiar with the
product, or had the decency to consult me first, there wouldn't be a problem. I
encourage you to do whatever checking you have to do first, but I assure you it
is 100% legal. The coupons listed in the auction were compliant with your coupon
listing policy. And as far as age concerns, the Camel website provides all the
verification needed.
I am requesting an apology from ebay for ending this listing. Also, I would like
an apology or compensation for the time I had to invest to relist this and to
respond to you folks.
Call me anytime: 704.622.5050
or Email: irulemorethananyoneelse@hotmail.com
kisses,
Ben (MrCustomerService)

You would think a company as large as eBay would have enough people sitting around to make at least one research something before they pull the plug on it. But, then again, maybe it's all run by monkeys.
I will kill ebay! redrum redrum!
I list a lot on ebay, so I'd be interested in what they say back to you on this one if you could let me know? Syd
p.s. their ability to let you talk or resolve complaints with a "real" person instead of this convoluted mail process is really horrendous. I find it to be so diffcult that I've not even filed on things before because its just not worth the damn hassle.
