Default Heritage Auctions: Ambush Marketing?

Posted By: barrysloate

Jimmy- Toward the end of last year I was selling some consignments on ebay and getting ready to start my November catalog auction. I thought it would be a great idea to post my website address on each ebay listing and steer more traffic over there. But I asked a couple of people with more ebay experience than me and I was told ebay will shut me down if they catch it. And I certainly couldn't risk that as how do I tell a consignor I can no longer sell their material because I was shut down?

So when I see Heritage's listing I have to think they knew that too but were more clever than I was. They simply found a way to beat the system.
