I just read that there will be a new policy requiring sellers to list Item Condition starting in September. Has eBay REALLY thought this through? Sure, New and Used helps describe manufactured items -- but how does this work with natural items like feathers (Which I sell)? They are not manufactured "new" -- the birds used them first! But "used" would give the impression somebody made something with them already.
What about plants and bulbs? Are they new or used?
If I sell a cactus that has been on my windowsill for a couple years, is it used?
Are rocks new even if they are millions of years old?
Is an empty wasp nest "used" because the wasps had it first?
Are dead insects and taxidermy specimens "new"?
Are animal bones new or used?
I can already see problems with this policy... can't you?
