I certainly agree with banning people out to make profit selling multiple holsters for pure profit but what about the one guy who sells a rig he no longer needs that ends up selling for way too high? Is it really the sellers fault?

Once someone pays me for a holster and it ends up in their hands, it is no longer my property, but theirs. The new owner is free to do whatever they want with it once they own it. Our ebay policy was never meant to penalize anyone trying to sell a Milt Sparks holster they no longer need. That I can certainly understand and if they happen to get more than they paid for it, more power to them. If you've seen some of the orders I've refused to take, or some of the orders I've cancelled, you would know who our policy was aimed at and you would see how it might impact the wait times of those who are in genuine need. That's all I care about. After all, it all pays the same.

I appreciate TK's policy. I suspect that there are those who would buy all he could make if the secondary market is so lucrative.
Thanks, Tony.

We use that quote all the time here in our IT department when we're asked to do mindless tasks.
