I listed two items Buy it Now.
Is that BETTER THAN auctioning the items? They are Laserdiscs, Adult Porn Star.

What do you mean? The adult catagory doesn't have buy-it-now's.

It's a Marilyn Chambers laserdisc. I listed it as "Other/Adult Material." Oops did I do something wrong?

I'm not sure where that catagory is located, but I know in the "mature audiences" you are not allowed to do buy'it-nows. You might want to check because it it's not in the right catagory, it may get pulled off of ebay. Like I said, I don't know where "Other/Adult Material" is. But I have seen some playgirl magazines pop up in the catagory I sell in and they get pulled pretty quick.

As far as your original question about BIN better than auctioning, I always use it, but that's not how I get most of my sales. Most of mine seem to get bids first and then goes up (sometimes)

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Looks like you listed them in this category

Movies & Television:Video, Film:Laserdiscther

They won't last long.

I didn't see mature audiences under "movies". The item I'm listing is a laserdisc movie.

I didn't see mature or adult. I saw "other" and then I categorized it as "adult material." It's listed already. I did a search and it shows up. Maybe not in the Adultl materials section, but if you go to the search button, input the name and title it shows up.

It's not under Movies, You'll find it under "everything else" on ebays main search. From there you'll see mature, and then there are different catagories.

You can move or they may move it for you.

The laserdisc featuring M Chambers was moved to the Mature Audiences and then guess what? Ebay cancelled it, said it wasn't within their policy.

Didn't know THAT! So I'm stuck with an adult movie w/Ms. Chambers on Laserdisc. Any ideas where I can sell it?

Still waiting for them to approve the Twilight Zone laserdisc.

I bought this stuff at a garage sale, very cheap, and now I'm trying to unload it. Thanks all.

Confused.
I just looked at my Ebay listings.
Twilight Zone is there.
And SO ARE THE TWO MARILYN CHAMBERS MOVIES.

Last night I deleted one of them. But both are appearing. It's under Adult Material. But they just sent an email saying it was prohibited material.
Leave it alone?

Correction: The M Chambers laserdisc that was ended by Ebay is the one under General category.

Everything is okay now. No need to reply.
