100,000 what?
LOL — GMTA
Quatloos.
Really? Got any support for that claim? I've never seen one or read an article about that happening where eBay didn't pull the auction from their site.
“eBay has a policy of not allowing the auctioning of government documents.”
So does that mean it’s real?
Otherwise wouldn’t it just be a ‘novelty item’?
I don’t think they ban those.
“and yet the auction page has disappeared again”
bump
The only entity on earth which could authenticate such a document is the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London.
Without their verification, it's just a piece of paper.
I can buy a "Kenya birth certificate" in Mombasa with your name on it which can pass any test on earth - except a check with the relevant government, UK before 1963, Kenya after.
the person should just put up there own site for a auction. I watched its yesterday - it was at $1400 around 12:00pm and this morning it was close to a million
Aaaaaaaaannnnnnnd ................ its gone!
poof
When the auction first got pulled, I searched ebay for birth certificates and there was a copy of Elvis’s, it is goi\ne now, but this is posted

also, check this one out—this is getting funny!
Could the buyer, P***1, be this guy? http://puzo1.blogspot.com/

I guess Obama better not piss off the UK then huh?
I have no doubt (personally) that if there was a British East Africa birth certificate on file in London, that we would have known about it two years ago.
Not really. I read the rules on Ebay yesterday. There is a phrase in there about looks like an official document.
A: God does not have a birth certificate either......Rush, today.
Whatever it was that the thug who called them said would happen to ebay.
Is a dissertation an official document? So now ebay shuts down auctions based on rumors.
Those are some pretty serious charges. If eBay really believes what they’re saying, why haven’t they cancelled colmado_naranja’s account? http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/colmado_naranja_W0QQ_nkwZQQ_armrsZ1QQ_fromZ
Your post #50—hilarious link! “What I witnessed on ebay”—I agree that it appears ebay is admitting it is an official government document by pulling the auction.
