Now this should get interesting!

Looks like all of the Militaria sellers will be heading over to the "Niche" site Militaria Collectibles Auction Haus.

First Firearms, now this.

Good Luck Militaria Collectibles Auction Haus, hope you folks can handle the traffic!

I wonder what else e(PC)Bay will ban? Religious memoralibelia (I know, I spelt it wrong)? Medical supplies? Slavery and/or Civil War items? Mayhap they just want to LEVEL the playing field flat. I guess now my "new"(ie;found at a yard sale this weekend) first edition of "Mien Kauf" will be sold privately, eh?

In another thread, Toke raised a good question:

What about WWII Japanese items?
What about WWII Croation and Baltic items?
What about WWII Italian items?
What about WWII Polish items?
What about WWII U.S. items?
