I got an email from Ebay that they now have a "Sell your Services on Ebay". I went to see what services were offered and it's all over the place, including a PIMP DIPLOMA for sale.

Bid on Business CARDS????
Ebay is really getting gross and trying to cover all the bases. It needs to get back to basics.

If you are referring to eLance - it's not exactly new hon. It's been around for at least five years, and is a great way for start ups to find very affordable venders and new venders to expand their market without heavy advertising costs.

Just because you have just found something does not mean that it is new and just because you are not capable of finding a way for something to benefit you does not mean that it is not beneficial.

Wasn't there a bit of a news article about not having degrading black americana on ebay any more?

Ace - I think the most insensitive individual in this situation would be the one assuming and continuing tha stereotype that all pimps are black. Welcome to a new generation where pimps are black, white, latino, asian, old, young, male and female.

I think the black Americans may have a legit beef some times. Two of the Pimp Diploma auctions are in the following categories:


Collectibles > Cultures, Ethnicities > African (1900-Now) > Other

Collectibles > Cultures, Ethnicities > Black Americana > Prints, Posters

It seems the proof reader of the article on black memorabilia didn't learn to spell "t-shirt" so accepted the mistake and the correct spelling. LOL!!
