    Ebay donating money to shooting organisations ?????? Ebay is one of the most anti gun organisations around.It prohibits the sale of firearms,parts,firearm kits ,reloading equipment etc ,etc.Even empty ammo cases.Somthing funny here.:confused:

    I think our situation here with charitable status versus charities kindof precludes it :(
    I particularly like the idea of E-Bay making a donation to the shooting sports.
    That would be a somewhat pleasant thought :D

    Ebay anitgun they're hardly that bad i mean you can understand them not allowing guns or ammo to be sold.

    As for the donating money its very small amounts and would take an awful lot of clicking if you that interested in money for shooting organisations your time would be better spend working overtime and giving that even if you did 2 hours a week and gave that depends how committed you are i guess

    Yea,and the policy seems to change every other day.There was a post here awhile ago about some fellow trying to sell a few empty 303 shells in AZ and the farce he had to go thru to sell them on ebay.Yes one moment it iseems ok,then next day you are banned from Ebay selling "unsuitable" products.
    Go figure.

    Is there a catch?

    Is there anything similar in Ireland?

    If no & no, consider supporting it(?)

    Hiya

    No catch whatsoever - its a brilliant idea! I'm the one who is administering and publicising it for the NRA-GB so know a bit about it.

    Search engines make shedloads of money - this one is giving 50% back to charity so if you're a charity you just sign up and get people to pick you as their chosen charity. Then every time your supporters search the web, shop online via the Shopping links or bid on Ebay your charity gets money.

    Personally I would love to see a shooting organisation at the top of the highest charity earners list wouldnt you?!:D

    Please join up and support us if you can!

    Best wishes
