Marlin,
I think Maybe Jerry was refering to the variations of the ebay names I used.
I agree with Jerry in the fact that the auction site has helped many people find items that they may have never found.
This is a two edged sword however as buyers can and will drive up the market value of items therefore the affectionate remarks. And add to that the fact that they really don't care about you if a deal goes bad. I've been there and it is blatantly true.
I do have one big chip on my shoulder against ebay: That is that they care nothing for our veterans or the law of the land in their emotional feel good bias against firearms. They will allow some commie to sell and disgrace all kinds of medals and service awards that good men died for. However they will not allow a man to sell or buy even a new grip or stock or even a sling for their AR15 rifle. Not even a cleaning kit or bore brush if you use the wrong kind of gun in the title or description.
In fact paypal used to be quasi OK. When Ecommie took it over you will now get your account closed for even mentioning any sort of firearms accessories in a transaction that you use them for. It is against their policy to use paypal for ANYTHING gun related.
As a private business it is their right to make these restrictions. But that does mean they are not jerks either.
Rant over. Now back to the topic
