Say Goodbye To Beer Sales on eBay

image
Looks like an ABC News Investigation where a 13-year old teenager was able to purchase vodka on eBay will lead to the end of beer & alcohol sales on eBay.

This from ABCNews:

The online marketplace eBay has said it will begin removing listings for beer and liquor from its site after a teen working with "20/20" successfully ordered vodka from two eBay vendors. The vendors advertised their products as "collectible."

While eBay prohibits the sale of all alcohol with the exception of some wines sold by licensed wine sellers, it does allow for the sale of collectible alcohol containers. The site's current alcohol policy states that the seller of the container "will take all appropriate steps to ensure that the buyer is of lawful age in the buyer's and seller's jurisdiction."
