EBay Warns Buyers, Sellers of Recalls

The Associated Press says that eBay is sending notices to sellers hawking recalled items, warning that they could be banned from eBay and may have to forfeit their fees. May have to? Sheesh, you’d think that would be automatic.

The San Jose-based company, which listed 559 million items worth $14.46 billion last quarter, is also asking shoppers to be extra diligent about e-mailing or talking directly to sellers, and it's providing links to the government's database of recalled goods.
