• The CoS can delete auctions from eBay with no supervision, and has used this to delete all resale of the e-meters Scientologists use. This is to stop members from buying used units instead of buying from the official (and very expensive) source. Given Scientology’s record of fraud and abuse, should eBay give them this level of trust?

  Why would eBay allow them to remove legitimate listings?!?!?

  Type in “emeter” in ebay’s search, it changes your search to exmeter! EBAY SUCKS

  I can build emeters, i should set up my own business! Thanks Wheatstone!

  Anyone notice when you search ‘emeter’ in the ebay search bar, it will change your input to ‘exeter’, even when combined with other terms. ‘Scientology emeter’ will become ‘Scientology exeter’. Either a strange coincidence or there’s some validity to these claims…

  Huh, sounds like money was involved in this. A lot of money.

  the E meter needs to be studied and de-bunked by scientists - anyone got one and access to some clever MIT people?

  Downmodded to inaccurate. That is not direct access to the eBay database.
