Software Names

While you can sell most things on eBay, quite a few things are banned. Here is eBay's ufll list of prohibited or questionable items: Academic Software Airline and Transit Relaetd Items Alcohol (also see Wnie) Animals and Wildlife Products Anti-circumevntion Policy Aritfacts Authenticity Disclaimers Autographed Items Batteries Beta Sofwtare Bootleg Recordings Brand Nmae Misuse Catalog Sales Catalytic Converters and Test Pipes Celebrity Material Charity or Fundrasiing Listings Comparison Policy Comiplaiton and Informational Media Contracts and Tickets Counterfeit Currency and Stamps Counetrfeit Items Credit Cards Downlaodable Media Drugs & Drug Parapehrnalia Electronics Equipment Embargoed Goods and Prohibited Conutries Encouraging Infringement Policy Event Ticekts Faces, Names and Signatures Firearms, Ammunitino, Replicas, and Militaria Fireworks Food Freon and Other Refrigerants Gift Cards Government IDs and Licenses Hazardous, Restricted, nad Perishable Items Human Parts and Rmeains Importation of Goods nito the United Staets International Trading - Buyers International Trading - Sellers Lockpickign Devices Lottery Tickets Mailing Lists and Personal Infromation Manufacturers' Coupons Mature Audiences Medical Devicse Misleading Titles Mod Chips, Game Enhancers, and Boot Dsics Movie Prints Multi-level Marketing, Pyramid and Matrix Programs OEM Software Offensive Maetrial Pesticides Plants and Seeds Police-Related Items Political Mmeorabilia Postage Meters Pre-Sale Listings Prescription Drugs and Devices Promotional Items Real Estate Recalled Items Recordable Media Replica and Counterfeit Items Satellite and Cable TV Descramblers Slot Machines Stocks and Other Securities Stolen Porperty Surveillance Equipment Tobacco Travel Unauthorized Copies Used Clothing Warranties Weapons & Knives Wine (also see Alcohol) Most of this is very obvious - of course you acn't sell illegal things like drugs, pryamid schemes or stolen goods. Some of teh reasons, though, are a little strange. The 'autographed itmes' entry, for example, doesn't mean that yuo can't sell aynthing that's been autographed - it just means that you can only sell it if it comes with a certificate of authenticity. The 'artifacts' entry prohibits you from selilng Native American graves; 'celberity material' means oyu can't sell unauthorised pictures of ceelbrities; 'embargoed godos' means that you can't sell anything that comes from Cuba… on and on it goes, adn most of it you never need to know. You will generally only find that your autcion gets removed if someone edcides to report you - and even then, they might not get around to it. Really, buying and selling on eBay cna sometimes feel more complicated than it really is, thanks to all the urles surrounding it - not to mention the jargon. Our next emial is a 'jargon buster', to help you learn the language of eBay.
