Ebay is no longer bdsm friendly.

I just bought two things in the last two days from FA - and i've got four open (and currently winning) bids still going, too.

There's no one there, just about. You bid on it: you win it.

But still...still...i gotta slow down a little.
:eek:
 
I won 3 on FA (2 last week), and I have some open bids over there now, I have had my eye on this quirt since Dusty said she won 1 from the same seller, but I had other things to get before I could bid.




WHOAAAAAA this is my 100th post
 
About that eBay policy "change":

I won an auction at FA. After recieving the notification, i replied to the vendor and asked if we could wait on payment/shipping because i was bidding on another auction of his, it was still open, and i was, at the moment, the high bidder. He agreed, easily.

His sig line contained his website.
On his website is a copy of the letter eBay sent out to the vendors of BDSM stuff when they ended all those auctions early. I found the letter very interesting. I noticed a call for unity among those like us in terms of buying from kink-friendly auction sites (FA) if eBay doesn't want our business. I noticed, too, that this vendor (and, i assume, others like him) is discounting his auction stuff for now in an effort to make the transition to FA all the sweeter for all of us.

In other words, now is the time to make those toy purchases you've been putting off, boys and girls and bois. The discounts are real and deep at FA right now. Jump on it.

Here's the site from the vendor with whom i'm dealing: http://www.bdsm-gear.com/
 
Um, that was me up there.
:eek:

Apparently i should be asleep right now, not still up - and my brain knows it even if my body doesn't.
 
BUMP

We absolutely listen to others. It is how FA was built. PKA chose us, we got hacked to bits and changed servers and rebuilt the whole auction code by code. I hired a superb script writer. PKA, which is a groups of sellers, told us what they wanted and we built it. Out of over 100 suggestions, we incorporated 92 of those suggestions.

We will continue to do so. We want to offer a quality space for buyers and sellers. We are players, toy buyers, toy makers, etc. We know how important it is to find what you need. LOL..it's all about making play happen. It's a good thing.

I bumped this because I have been trying to log onto the Fetishauctioneer.com site and have not been able to. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the site still existed?

Thank you.;)

That must be new because I swear I couldn't get on before.

Ok, carry on.
 
I, too, have gotten some rather delicious items off ebay here recently.

(I do have to go get some batteries now, don't I?)
 
Yay

eBay and FA

People are still selling BDSM stuff (toys, movies, etc.) on eBay. Look in the "Everything Else - Mature" section for some of them, or do a search on "bondage" in the main area. Most of the sellers are using "bondage" as the keyword to indicate general BDSM, to skirt the eBay censors.

I like FA, but I've never bought anything there because I have yet to see a good bargain.

- Jesse
