Ebay announces new bicycle selling rules:
1. The frame size must be listed in the listing title. No exceptions.
2. Sellers that end listings early with valid bids will be required to pay the highest
bidder at the time of the end of the listing 25% of the high bid.
3. The following terms are forbidden from use in the description:
“Lightly used”, “Used for one season”, “Used for one ride only”
Actual or estimated mileage is the only acceptable description.
If mileage is unknown, it will be stated as such.
4. Sellers that list bikes for their racer buddies must state so.
5. Fuzzy or un-viewable pictures of the item listed will be removed.
6. Links to manufactures web sites with the phrase “please do your own
research” are also banned.
7. Any listing that also openly states the item is also for sale locally will be removed.
8. Bags will be prohibited as a shipping device.
