I would be equally shocked if you told me you could still go down to Western Union and watch them physically tip-tap out a telegram. -beaumon |

That being said, I didn't think anyone used WebTV anymore. |

Is the eBay/webtv block by IP address or email address? If it's by email address, then just sign up for a paid email service for a couple months so you can sell your coins. Even annually the paid email services are not that expensive. I used to have one for about $13 annual. I'm assuming eBay blocks the free email services. I think it's something to do with the actual service WebTV offers, not the email address. Here's an idea... go to the local library, sign on for Yahoo, and do it that way. I'm not sure if all free email address are blocked, but I have my eBay linked to a free email address. You have to provide a credit card to do this though, but that's not a big deal, you need to do that to become a seller anyway. S. |

Some browsers aren't set up for encryption that's sufficient for the task. Maybe WebTV is one of 'em. Or maybe it doesn't support javascript. Hard to say, but it's not that eBay doesn't allow it, it's that WebTV doesn't support it. Any ire is better directed at WebTV, rather than eBay. The web has standards, every other ISP doesn't lock people away from them - even AOL'ers can get to eBay. |

When people contact sites such as ebay they are often told that webtv
hardware / software is incompatible with the site, and some people take this as a personal rejection, when it's really just a matter of the internet changing, while webtv stays the same. The firewalled webtv newsgroups are filled with complaints by people who can't access their ebay, paypal, hotmail. and yahoo accounts, and find more and more websites simply won't load. Many like to blame the web sites. There are also some remarkable work arounds, using phonifier.com, skweezer.com or alternate log in addresses. Webtv does all it can to encourage people to give it up. They have released a newer product to mixed reviews. They also provide an incentive to switch to a computer: If you get a computer, they lower the $25 monthly webtv fee to $16 AND throw in free dial up MSN isp. http://community-2.webtv.net/saurkraut/PC_4_Me/ Unfortunately, many webbers are elderly and/or people who have no experience with a computer and are reluctant to make the transition.
