Ebay relents

Ebay finally agrees to place the Eucharist on the list of prohibited items.

As a result of this dialogue, we have concluded that sales of the Eucharist, and similar highly sacred items, are not appropriate on eBay. We have, therefore, broadened our policies and will remove those types of listings should they appear on the site in the future.

I haven't been able to confirm this on Ebay itself, though I've examined the list of prohibited items.

Edit: Seattle Catholic confirms the story.

Awesome! I guess the petition we all signed and the Catholics who emailed them got their voice heard!

Yes. Now I can reopen an account. I wanted to change my user name anyway. LOL I may need to use dh's email though.

We get a lot of our kids' clothes on eBay. This is definitely good news.
