Administrators tell those who contacted seller not to respond again
A notice from eBay administrators is now warning people who have contacted the seller of an allegedly genuine copy of Barack Obama's birth certificate from Mombasa, Kenya not to contact the seller again.
Furthermore, the sale page offering a dissertation on "the truth" about Obama's birth with bids reported by WND readers to have exceeded $1 million has been pulled from the auction website for the fifth time.
As WND reported, the eBay seller, known to the public only as "colmado_naranja," alleged he obtained President Obama's birth certificate while traveling Africa. He explained that Kenyans boasted that Barack Obama II was born in the Coast Provincial Hospital in Mombasa at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961, which correlates with speculation that has existed over the president's birthplace since even prior to his election.
In each of the seller's first four attempts at auctioning the "evidence" of his claim, which would presumably render Obama ineligible to serve as president for violating the "natural born citizen" clause, colmado_naranja offered an alleged Kenyan birth certificate that "proved" his story.
The eBay website, however, has a policy forbidding the sale of certain government documents, which presumably led to the auction page being removed.
In the fifth and thus far most successful attempt at auctioning "the truth about Obama," the seller didn't mention the birth certificate, offering instead a "dissertation" on Obama's birthplace, and yet the auction page has disappeared again.

I certainly would not want to write a life insurance policy on the seller. He had better have a pretty intricate trail between his username and his actual identity.

I now question the authenticity of the “document” based on the seller’s apparent monetary gain as a priority.
What price does this seller place on his own freedom?
Watch him quickly disappear from the face of the earth, if for no other reason than to deter others from similar quests be they legitimate or not.
Ping to #20
Also, wnd reports another lawsuit in CA re O’s eligibility to serve as president. Suit was filed on innauguration day before he became president.
Hahaa.. Rush just mentioned he doesn’t know if Obama was born in Hawaii..... LoL!
Freepers knew this was going to happen. I did not comment, but quite a few predicted this...we have some really intelligent Freepers here.
“well see, Ebay is in a quandary....by banning the sale of government documents, they are in fact attesting that this certificate is an official government document, and in fact the real thing. If in fact it is a novelty item, then of course it wouldnt be banned.
So, which is it Ebay.....a government document, or not? If it is a government document, then you have confirmed what we know...that the Usurper is a fraud.”
Good point. Maybe some conservative George Soros will give the owner his price behind the scenes, and let us all see it and judge for ourselves.
Rush just got note saying O was born in Taco, TX.
Rush just said: “I got a note here that says Obama was born in Taco, TX....I’ve never heard of Taco, TX” LOL
Sounds like the WH thugs got to eBay.
Do not contact the seller, as he will not answer, the FBI has raided his residence and seized all false documents along with the computer. If you wish to contact the seller, please visit Fort Marcy Park..

Stock going down.
Could someone be manipulating it in response to this auction?
Just wondering.
(I don’t know jack about the stock market)
That can go another way.
Obama: P.T. Barnum was right.
There's one born every minute.
Excellent Point!!!
eBay has a policy of not allowing the auctioning of government documents. It is not limited to this situation.
Seems a sane policy to me.
