Late last night, I listed a U.S. Coast Guard Approved emergency flare launcher on eBay ... and as of today it had 4 bids already (1 week auction)! I just received a message from eBay slapping me on the wrist for violating their frigging FIREARMS policy and the listing has been removed. WTF??? Jerk-offs!

From their policy page ....

Items that may not be listed or sold on eBay include:
- Ammunition
- Firearms
- Flares, flare launchers, or flare guns
- Kits for building firearms
- Parts or accessories that allow guns to fire
- Magazines that accept more than 10 rounds, typically referred to as "high-capacity" magazines
- Zip guns

I just received their justification via email:

You listed a flare gun. We prohibit flare guns because they fire a projectile and can be used with anti-personnel ammunition that would qualify them as firearms and destructive devices per the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.

Sheeesh!

I'll tell 'em I know you and maybe they'll make a policy exception!
