Unfortunatley ebay rules forbid knives and edged weapons .

I had an item removed by them last weekend which only had a couple of hours before it was sold , this is classed as inert ammo or componenet parts there of .

I did say that I would abid by their decision but I hoped that it applied also to suppliers of the same item from other countries , to which the reply was if I would report said items they will look into it . No way let them do there own dirty work .

There is a pig sticker on ebay at the moment descibed as a letter opener , desk item , wonder hoew long that will last .

Hope you get yours sold before someone reports it .

nWhat you can do is list it on the Belgian ebay then it may get seen here , there are often Bayonets from the USA listed in the Lee Enfield section , I bought a bayonet a couple of weeks ago from a guy in Lancashire who lists via Belgian .
Good looking items but I would sell them individualy as not every one wants all three , just my opinion , at least you can put the sight adjuster and sling on ebay here .

Bnz had looked at your eBay listing earlier while watching another bayonet. The other bayonet sold in US $'s even though the seller is listed as being in the UK, as was the item. We have just checked. A seller called cutting-edge UK, (clue in the name) is selling an SA80 bayonet as a "collectible", it is listed in US $'s. There are plenty of others who seem to be getting round the rules.

I nearly had my account closed down a few years back. We acquired some 30 round .223 AR15 mags and thought we would sell them. I sold one then had a question from a guy in New York about the capacity, then came the warning :(

We have listed a few 1/6 scale rifles and even they can cause confusion :G

This is a link to their policy on weapons. http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/weapons.html

At the end of the day its all about ebay trying to be pc in th UK , they get all high and mighty with us but in reality dont give a s**t what happens in the real world because their rules are different for other countries so long as they are making money .

I would also sell them separately. Anyone noticed that eBlag uk has some form of policy block in place for interesting items? I was looking for an M-89 Krag bayonet, nothing listed in the UK search, a .com one showed nothing as well but searching from a Norway IP revealed a couple of nice ones so I logged in from Norway, added the item and sure enough it was visible in my UK watch list.

Salut,

I could be interested.

Which marker is it pls ?
Is it "matching #" ? (makers + date markings on the ricasso matching those on top of the scabbard) ?
Do you have a close up photo of the markings on the frog pls ? is it brown or black ?
Same for the markings on the frog retention hook on the scabbard & the markings on the guard as they seem to be post-war re-issued foreign marking.

Cheriooo,
