Well done, Cosmic - sounds very positive on their front, but of course as with anything actions speak louder than words.

Will 'watch this space'

Good effort.

Bill, great news and we owe it all to you and your petition. Perhaps no longer will I open eBay auctions for 'Uncirculated 1797 Penny' in hopes it isn't a copy.

Well done, Bill, and thank you

If Ebay doesn't make this change, perhaps we could bug them about making a completely separate category for reproductions, copies, and the like?

Forgive my cynical view, but that sounds like Form Response #27(A)3(b)(iii).

Hi all,

Thanks for keeping this dialogue going. We appreciate your passion for the Coins and Paper money category!

Rest assured the Code of Conduct is something we are looking to improve. We have a new manager in Coins and Stamps, and she is quickly coming up to speed (and frequently reads this board). We agree this is an important issue. One of her first priorities is to modify the Code of Conduct.

Thanks for your patience.

Sounds encouraging. I hope it soon will be a reality. Good job, cosmic.

Good Job Comsic.
The first hurdle is getting their attention to a true problem.
Now it has to go through a couple of committee's and the legal beagles. The actual change will happen now that someone stood up and shouted for attention.
