Sorry to hear about your bad luck with eBay.

Firstly eBay normally only end auctions when someone reports you for policy violation. They more or less depend on other users to "police" the site on their behalf.

Secondly although your angry/frustrated at this time please refrain from using inapproparate language in this forum. We've all at some point had auctions ended by eBay.

Others sites you may want to try include QXL.com or CQOUT.com. Although none of these sites are considered a serious competitor to eBay.

There is a work round that does not violate ebay policy, direct the listing viewer to your about me page and you are entitled to link to other websites from there (within ebay rules).

I had my auction end early also for linking. I have since updated all my other auctions. It saved that information as a default.

let's be realistic, there are no other auction sites that come close to the traffic you find on ebay

Does Google have and auction website? So far I've found NOTHING on the level that ebay is on and that's sad considering how poorly eBay treats their core.
