Thread: eBay Banned Koi sales!? Why?

Yeh it’s been like this for a bit, I also keep marine setups and it’s been debated for a few months on a reefkeeping forum I’m on, it did seem to affect coral sales at first aswell but it seems they are now allowed again

I’ve also used aquarist classifieds myself , it is a good setup but always seems a bit outdated to me, I had expected it to be busier on there recently because of the ebay thing but seems just as slow

Didn’t know that about Facebook marketplace not allowing it either, I don’t actually use Facebook myself so not sure how strict they are, you could try listing them or listing it as a pond closure advert with details of the fish within it? See if it gets removed?

If Facebook turn out to be as strict on this as eBay are then where are people actually going to sell fish from inherited ponds/pond closures etc if there’s no readily available outlet for them-will illegal dumping in canals etc become more common?

Can't find your number - if you still have mine text me and I'll add you to a big private Koi sales group. You'll need to install Telegram.

Funnily enough I noticed AJM (Johnathan) joined the group yesterday.

Apparently "Only Fins" is taken.
