Laugh and the world laughs with you -- snort and you snort alone...unless you're with me!!!

Just another great reason why you, Blaire, are such a Special Friend!

I hope so too, Caitlin. I feel that it is a very unfair trade practice that if a store offers goods on consigment, that store is still liable if the goods are falsely labeled, yet eBay, for whatever reason seemed to feel they were not subject to the same rules the rest of us must work by.

Actually, I don't think that a warning that comes up like the one on knives would affect sales at all. It only comes up for the seller to view when listing items and the customers never see it. I'm interested to see what the response on eBay will be. Apparently they will now be required to do more to "police" the sellers.
