Hey there, Thanks for your call the other day, and thanks for the eBay advice.
We took matters into our own hands... http://wreckandsalvage.com/auction The auction for Week 3 ends tomorrow...current high bid of $100. Nelson is still haggling with eBay, trying to get us reinstated...faxing documents, proof of identity, retinal scans, urine samples, etc. I have a couple theories as to why we were booted, but my evidence is all circumstantial so I'll refrain from hypothesizing. We're looking into it with a microscope though, so we'll figure it out eventually. Needless to say, the eBay folks have been less than helpful. Oh well. Power to the People.
