Ebay

$12!

GP32x as a replacement for the corrupt ebay. Maybe GP32x should open up a trading platform since ebay is banning gp32 (and maby also gp2x) from its system

​

Is this true about eBay? I can understand that you can't sell discs full of ROMs on eBay, but who'd've thunk it eh?
Maybe notoriority could have some good side-effects for the GP2X (like when the parents were complaining about Mortal Kombat, only completely different...).

well theres quite a few gp32's on ebay right now one actually has a picture of the gp32 playing Sonic 2..

I don't think they take it off unless someone sends a warning about it.

They removed mine (twice) because I specifically mentioned first ROMS, then in the re-listing, emulation. One of their "partners" (copyright watchdogs) requested it be removed for violating their policy.

I don't see how they would justify it. The GP2X as hardware doesn't play roms, and there are plenty of freeware games that play on it. This is like after 9-11 companies lobbying to out-law open source, they really didn't have a reason beyond it might be used in some way to aid a terrorist act.

Thanx,
Stan

edit: Didn't see your post gaterooze. Does ebay own a media company of some sort? I wouldn't be surprised.

I can see how mentioning emulation and ROMs is grounds for removal from ebay... but they can't ban the sale of the hardware.

The easiest way to mention it has Emu + Rom capabilities is just to add an external link to your ebay item description (perhaps to here) that way it is not YOU specifically that is mentioning emu/roms.

I just won an auction for a GP2X on ebay, so I think deadlychicken22 is right about them not taking it off unless someone reports it.

Yeah I just checked and there were 5 or 6 for sale. I don't think they are going anywhere soon.

I think it was the GP32 that got an auction shut down.

The auctions I saw billed it as a Video player and mentioned it came with a CD.

I guess you can't kick an auction out for that .

I got the information from this thread

Maybe someone should report any of PSPs availiable on Ebay explaying it can be use for playing roms. I'm curious of their response

I've just sold my GP32 on Ebay. However, I did specifically say there wouldn't be any ROMs or emulators with it, so they shouldn't have had any problems with it.
