Am I blind? According to the article it looks like the only magic being banned are spells and such not magic tricks.

Oh, I wasn't aware. Looks like things will return to the days of yore when "magic" coins were sold under the counter. Anyone remember those days?
[/quote] I remember being in Sterling Anderton's Fun Shop when a man walked in and ask Bill Johnson if he had two headed coins and marked cards. Bill pulled out a shoe box, and said"sure, how many do you want". The man flip a Treasury Department badge and said "I'll take all of 'em".

Who really cares if ebay has banned voodoo crap.
Bill When Donald told me that some sleezy guy was selling Eric's products all I could think of was Eric's three fatherless kids.

Yes who really cares if they ban all this stuff.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Al,
After I found out who it was I had the same thoughts as you. At first I thought it was nice that Eric's family make arrangements to sell the stuff. But what Dennis is selling is a collection of YouTube clips. I reported his other two user names to the Bay several times in the past and the response I got from the Bay was that I was basically spamming them for doing it so often and they threatened to terminate my account. I can only conclude that the Bay doesn't really give a **** as long as they get their money. At least as long until the gov't catches something. You've probably seen the news stories about people selling human organs and such. I thought it was at Alice's Restaurant where you could get anything you wanted I never saved the user names Dennis was using but I'm reasonably sure the two I fell for are no longer active. Personally, I think he should be dealt with in a severe and permanent manner. |

Here is how one eBay "witch" will cope with the "sorcery" ban:

"Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"
"To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time." "The dog did nothing in the night-time." "That was the curious incident," remarked Sherlock Holmes. |

That includes any Eric Paul products and any Ed Harris products (which he also owned the rights to). No one has permission to copy them, or make new copies. Basically, the line is "lost" (but naturally, the copyrights still exist after the author's death). There are some people that tried to get permission in the honest and legal way. The ONE exception to this is the DVD set that Brad Ross is selling of the 2009 Eric Paul SuperConference. Brad Ross secured proper permissions. - Donald

If you want to buy a love potion. I can get you a deal on a generic brand. It comes in a cough syrup bottle, and taste just like water. I have been getting $100 for a 4 oz bottle, but I will make a two for one offer to anyone who contacts me today and uses the pass word Succulent.

Donald,
According to the Bay, Dennis is the legal owner and has every right to sell these also: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ED-HARRIS-Clipar......220e7634 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ed-Harris-Magici......220eca09 I say that because I reported them and the Bay still allows it. Just remember people: The Bay owns PayPal and has access to your bank account, credit card info, etc. And they have NO regard for the law. |

The ebay ban on magic has nothing to do with magic as we know it.

I made 600,000 on my love potion, and today only you can get three bottles for only $100. Here is the TV commercial.
