<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 283145, member: 6036&quot;]I work in automation technology. It seems that it would be easy enough for E-bay to automate the detection of erroneous listings. They could write some code to scan the description for the names of known bad slab companies and tell the poster &quot;it appears you have a disallowed description&quot;. At that point, two things happen :</p><ul> <li>Lister has option to list anyway or change description</li> <li>If they list anyway, E-bay enforcement people get a tip to check it out</li> </ul><p>Yes, I am aware that there are new &quot;bad&quot; slab companies every day, so E-bay would have to expand their criteria periodically.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I am also aware that certain legit strings might LOOK like a bad listing - that is why lister has option to list anyway. Subsequent investigation by e-bay enforcement should exonerate the lister.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I also aware that NO software will catch &#039;em all... but catching some is better than none. Ya gotta start somewhere, and evolve from there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
