Re: people selling ultima accounts on ebay?

Thats a good question. Did they also offer something "real" in the listing?

Re: people selling ultima accounts on ebay?

Problem with Ebay is, they've still got the Ultima Online categories, so you can still list any UO item you want

After a few days or even after the auction is complete, EBay then emails people saying "Oh sorry, this item is disallowed"

Kinda stupid if you ask me.

Re: people selling ultima accounts on ebay?

34 listings for ultima online.... only items that are really UO are the 2 accounts they are at auction. The rest are actually Guild Wars and some other game.

I understood the items weren't to be allowed individually because they aren't "real" but that full accounts are considered "real" property.

I tried very hard a few years back to explain virtual property to our local small town police force. I was unsuccessful. All while I watched someone make $200+ off of 3 items. I was very lucky in as much as they didn't have time to loot my entire account. (Thanks hun!). The officer kept asking me.. "How can you own something that doesn't exist?"

Long story short while the actual houses, characters, items, etc. don't exist in the real world.. the account does.
