Activity on eBay is required to follow this policy, the eBay User Agreement and all applicable laws, as well as respect the rights of third parties.

Such actions may include, as an example only: Removing the listing or other content, issuing a warning, restricting activity or account suspension.
Some Examples
- Franking machine
- Postage meters
Additional Information
A franking machine is a device that automatically stamps letters or packages passing through it and computes the total charge. It prints an impression of the required value of postage on the mail, which is accepted by Pos Malaysia as a form of pre-paid postage.
For additional information, please refer to the
- Postal Services Act 1991
Why does eBay have this policy?
eBay urges its sellers and buyers to comply with all governmental laws and regulations. Since the sale of postage meters is prohibited by law, or may cause harm to eBay or its members, sellers are not permitted to list them on eBay.
