    Buying a 3 blade pedestal fan blade on ebay.

    Summary: The discussion revolves around purchasing a 3 blade pedestal fan blade on eBay. ricvans35 initiates the conversation, but detailed information about sent messages or specific member contributions is not provided. Various participants, including sandypebbles, davewil1964, brickworksmarket, and others, engage in the exchange, suggesting a collaborative search or sharing experiences related to the topic. The thread appears to contain multiple responses and exchanges, indicating active participation. Despite its concise content, the interaction underscores a shared interest in the subject.

    I am in Queensland Australia where the Government has just placed a ban on the sale of knives / blades and hence my problem. When I put the pedestal fan blade into my cart a government message appears and the purchase cannot be completed.

    Well at least your government are looking after you. If you get a knife, you might hurt yourself. All other states and territories obviously don't care if you cut yourself. Shame on them. 😶

    eBay does not read here

     

    You have had several replies since you posted a similar comment last month

     

    Nothing has changed 

     

    Buy from a real store, a real store's website or another website if it is still causing you issues after a month and you are still trying when you know what the result will be before you even try

     

    And it is still not a 'new' 'ban'

    Just tried multiple items using your search criteria.  Was able add numerous items to cart or use buy now.

    Only had 2 items come up with the message for Qld knife restrictions, and in both cases item specifics stated items were modified.

    How about books, dvds and games with titles like:

     

    Blade of the North

    Night of the long Knives

    Treatment for sore Shoulder Blades

    The Cutting Edge

    Razor Ridge

    They do not appear to be blocked for me.  Looked at quite a few both auction and BIN and did not get one red banner

    If listed as media shouldn't be an issue.

     

    If you are in Queensland, can you confirm it as an issue?

     

    Or are you simply trying to muddy the water?

    I am fairly sure I can still sell mower blades into Queensland, do these come up blocked for you.

    I suspect you will have to buy your fan from a physical entity.

    It hasn't 'just come in'  it's been several months

     

    It is not a technical issue, it is because it has the word blade in the title 

     

    You could contact the seller and ask if they can 'rephrase' the title/remove the 'offending word'

     

    It is not something other members can do anything about
