norkusa Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Auctioning off my Vectrex Gravitrex Plus cartridge. Complete with box & manual.

norkusa Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Ugh, listing was removed by Ebay. Should I bother re-listing it with a better description (i.e. no mention of 'homebrew' anywhere), or will they most likely pull that one too?

Crazy Climber Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Ugh, listing was removed by Ebay. Should I bother re-listing it with a better description (i.e. no mention of 'homebrew' anywhere), or will they most likely pull that one too? I have no idea why this happens sometimes. I sell brews all the time and put homebrew right in the title, but once and a while for some reason, certain games get pulled and others don't. It's really a lottery...

boxpressed Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I would leave the word "homebrew" out. I've listed several homebrews over the past few months, and I've noticed that if you include the word "homebrew" anywhere in the listing, your listing will not show up in eBay searches for about 12 hours. I assume this is because eBay is investigating whether anything illegal is going on. And, as you've seen, they don't even do that right. Listings without the word show up immediately. I tried looking for yours right after you posted here, but it didn't show up until later that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 It's weird how it happens though, I just sold DUX last week (and put Homebrew in the title) and that was the third time in a row I listed it, with no issues but when I sold NES Sneak n Peak with Homebrew they pulled it ASAP? It's a total crapshoot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariFriend Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I have seen a strong coalition between advertising homebrews or reproductions for sale on ebay that are mentioned here on AtariAge and the odds of said listings being removed from ebay versus not being mentioned here on Atariage being too great to go unnoticed.
