Well, I'll be jiggers! Neil's fax must have done the trick. All of ladybotany's auctions just vanished!

Neil, did you ever actually send it? For those who may have missed it, Neil reported the auctions came down before he sent the fax. So all I can figure out is the number of complaints from officers, former officers and members had some effect at eBay.

Again, for those who may be concerned this was uncalled for or somehow infringed on their right to sell seeds, it was not the selling of seeds that caused the furor. It was the theft of copyrighted material from the IAS site that got most of us in an uproar. That plus the fact the seller's various stories just did not add up and some of the plants offered were highly unlikely to be available.
