i cant believe that yahoo cancled my auction, it was under crafts, and the description was for plastic canvas fly-swatters..a craft item that hangs on a wall, ppl put flowers on them or little bugs, or rip signs, not a weapon, a craft item so they cancled it, and warned me if i did anything like this again, they would not let me sell on yahoo anymore...they sell guns, knives, adult stuff, and i got canned over a fly-swatter...

none, no real explaination, except i violated their policy, i wrote to customer service, and got a form letter, that didnt make any sense either, i mean, geeze, it was a decorative fly-swatter, not an oozie, they will sell you knives that could kill ppl, but dont try to kill a fly, that violates their policy, get real yahoo....

some where wome how some one complained maybe it was in the wrong catogory some how .
but someone definately complained yahoo has been pretty vigilant as in there new neighborhood vigilanty thing to clean up garbage off there site and item in the wrong catogory.
They have also cut the auto relist from 5 times to only 2x and cut the view photos only on auction booths to 8 radom autions only no links to the rest of your autions this one I think helps those who have pics hosted outside yahoo that wont show in there gallery.

Hi! Did you have a lot of links to other places on your description?
....Just looked at some National Geographic magazines, and one sellet there had more info on how to get the bonus from pay-pal, liks to other auctions, and so on, than description for the item he was supposed to sell. ...
If his auctions gets reported to NW, I'm sure they would be canceled in no time. It would not matter what the item is or in which category they are running....
