Looks like Ebay pulled the listing because the Swastika was not properly 'blocked' , you could still see a bit of it , ... other than that the pictures are the same .Description has been 'modified' a bit . Douglas 5 Sorry Douglas - I didn't mean to show up in your post - I hit the wrong button.

Douglas - eBay's stupid policy reads, "In accordance with our Offensive Materials policy, eBay does not permit Nazi items to be sold on our site. This applies even if the offending symbols have been cropped, edited or otherwise covered or altered in the image or description of the item. ...." It goes on and there is more garbage following - but basically, it it bears the sawstika and is not a video, book, coin, stamp or currency, it can't be listed (according to the policy) This goes in the "For what it's worth" department

Strange restriction indeed....
Must be an electronic submission system for sellers to post , so I take it then that only on 'spot checks' the 'non conforming ' post gets discovered by the Ebay police and removed . Some short postings i have noticed do make it through , ...a real nail biter for the seller ,....so some get pulled within 2 or 3 days .

I bet a good majority of the time it's when a collector want the piece....He rats it out to eBan so the auction is closed down than contacts the seller and buys it. The junk never gets pulled because serious collectors don't want it....

Judging from the picture, the dagger looks as "crooked" as the Seller! 3FL
