Have you ever had a RANGER Radio Pulled from E Bay?

Well, recently I had my 2970DX pulled 11 times within a week..the guy at eBay promised the radio would not be pulled because they called the FCC and the DX models are not on the prohibited list...


interesting, i can't seem to find a "new" list,.......... this one is SEVERAL years old and it still lists the 2970DX as a no-no:confused:

I could care less about a list.

eBay was inconsistent with their policy, or lack there of. That is why I pushed it so far, one person said it was ok and said to re-list another said no and pulled the ad whilst other radios of the EXACT same model were left to close and sell. I saved auction numbers and presented them to eBay and they could not tell me why mine was the only one being, they say "removed", I say I was being targeted. They denied targeting me.

This is not about what the FCC put on a list, it is what eBay does or does not do, a company as large as eBay MUST be consistent with their policy.

Hi HH,


Or else what ??

You'll stop doing business with them?

Empty threat. They don't care, you're just a number among millions of numbers.

whackbay is still the biggest and best thing going at doing what they do and they and everyone else knows it.

And that DOES SUCK

I hate their now outrageously high seller fees.....but what's a poor mud duck gonna do? Leave and not sell stuff to the world? Rock and a hard place.
 
It was not an "or what" threat of any kind, there are rules/laws even ebay has to follow.

Am I going to search and debate this point? hell no, I could care less, I will just say, "I got mine"

Don't like my attitude about that?
I don't care, you're just a number among millions of numbers.

you missed the point,... it IS about a list. , if it is NOT on a list, then it IS legal and THEN you have a ligit bitch.
.
you posted " the guy at eBay promised the radio would not be pulled because they called the FCC and the DX models are not on the prohibited list..."

sooo,.... ask, ...... no, DEMAND a copy of the list.


i think "someone" is deliberately "busting you chops" and complaining to fleabay.
did ya pizz anyone off at another site? jus sayin:blink:


if i were you, i would start a completley different account/username on fleabay, and NOT mention it to anyone.

This list was not prepared by the FCC.
 
I always read the threads on the various forums dealing with "banned" radios with great interest.
You could spend the rest of your life searching FCC databases trying to find the "Official List of Banned Radios" which I do not believe exists.
You can find several examples of individuals and business's that have been cited and fined for dealing in "Export" radios.
I know this is old news, but I will post a couple of links dealing with CB rules and citations.

Genral CB Rules-http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?job=service_home&id=cb

Operations-http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?job=operations&id=cb

Hmm, links don't work right. Oh well, if anyone is interested in reading they can cut and paste into their browser. I am too lazy tonight to fix them.

WW, Hooked and Pro,

Im not digging into anyone at all from this forum, the entire eBay experience was just a mess and aggravated me and that was the emotion I have.

I apologize if I offended anyone here, not my intention.

You have not offended me. This is what "open discussion" is all about.

Common sense prevails,hopefully that will stop them pulling multimode radios in the uk too.
I just got a Ranger ECI 6300f pulled from ebay. Can anyone help? I read there was a policy change and if I can get that info I can fight ebay.

Looking forward to your response.
