**** LOCK PICKING ****

There's nothing theoretical about it. I said they weren't allowed. They aren't. Period. Concrete and factual, not theoretical.

It does when they are yanked off before anyone can buy them as the very first example you posted already has been. If 10 are pulled before the sale ends for every one that might possibly make it through trying to buy there is pretty much a giant waste of time.

For Crying Out Loud.

and what link? I didn't TRY

I don't doubt that. It would make it too simple for people to see that the stuff you were going on about had already been pulled by ebay.

Instead of linking to them and saving time for anybody who bothered to look at what you were talking about.

You need to go look up the word "semantics".

LOL are you really so dense as to believe that ebay has no employees checking listings for prohibited items? Never mind I withdraw the question.

He probably would. LOL

It's against federal law. If you want to be technical about it. Also judging from what you've already posted, there is little to indicate that you have a clue what the law in your own state is.

Anyway if you bought them from ebay or pretty much any of the other sellers that sell to the general public you already payed at least twice what they are worth in the first place. That's probably punishment enough.

Sure. Show me the vastly overpriced items if they exist.

It wouldn't surprise me from what you've posted thus far.

Go to you dictionary and look up semantics. Or wait until you get to the 8th grade and maybe it will be on one of your vocabulary lists. About the only thing that's true is if someone wants to try and buy overpriced lockpicks from e-bay before auction after auction they bid on from sellers who as likely as not don't ship out of the US anyway gets pulled they are free to waste their time doing so.

In the business of getting stuffed in lockers at his junior high. LOL.

True. Most people who list key machines on ebay have no idea they are against the rules.

Sure you can do that but I recomend that if you have an established well rated sellers account you want to keep to do it from another account since ebay would probably consider it solicitation of an off site sale.

Well arguably carbide bits have other uses than safe drilling. As far as clippers, bench punches, etc they likely don't know what they are.

No. I think that would be quite clear since you are specifying "online auctions". However you didn't say that so it's irrelevant.

He's a kid. He's at the expert on life know it all age still.

How can it be the last point when you have failed as yet to make a point. :)

He's really not a troll. He just likes to argue but can't muster anything to back up his original argument so he tries to morph it to fit. Seriously I think he's just a kid and maybe he did manage to actually buy some picks from ebay, but in the vast majority of cases it's a waste of time trying to buy any locksmithing tools or key machines there unless you were to just flat out email the seller directly. I've even seen non bypass oriented tools yanked just because the copy had the word "locksmithing" or "locksmith" in the description.

just wanted to know what you would do.

may be against the law someone (average joe) to posses them ?

Actually, I'm 31... And I stand by my original argument.

...and no one specified they were looking for "search engines" either. So Ebay was still a viable suggestion.
