He can't offer unlimited EVERYTHING for $20 a month. And let you have the freedom to host anyones domain as if you were a webhosting company.

Goto the link. They tell you to read their TOS. Here is an excerpt from it:

They are actually a reseller for this company:
http://www.rihosting.net/
This company is itself a reseller of Fasthosts.

We kicked a customer off our servers for spamming and he went to Fasthosts.
His e-mail didn't work because there was no MX record.
They told him to contact us because it was due to a problem with the domain name registration.........
........ basically, no MX record inserted into their zone file till they had transferred domain registrar to Fasthosts.

Sharp practice.

Do you know how fustrating it is to find the 'contact us' page at ebay? They do a pretty good job of hiding it so they don't get mail, heh, but I found it MUH-HAHAHAHAHA. Emailed them and we'll see if they leave it up.

Hello,

Thank you for writing with your concern.

I have reviewed the information that you have sent in regarding a
possible violation of our guidelines. At this point I do not have
enough evidence to show that the member has violated any eBay rules.
Therefore, no action will be taken at this time.

Please be sure to check our Prohibited, Questionable & Infringing Items
pages for information on what eBay will allow to be listed:

Unlimited everything for $20/mo. I'd imagine you run your own servers
there at ebay and know that this offer is complete trash. Please do not
lower ebay standards and allow such false products to be auctioned off.

$20 a month? Better clean your glasses Chicken! It's $20 a YEAR

It is almost Xmas which means I can pull the Xmas special down soon, good god I was too generous with that one! It's nearly as silly an offer as the $20 a year unlimited crap, with one difference I suppose, I'm actually stubborn enough to stand behind it :D
