Bill,

Thanks for asking about me, I am sorry you have forgotten that I have responded to you before. I am a conservator and private collector, not a dealer. I do not sell or trade jades. I do not hold a business sales license, and I don't sell anything, whether on eBay or anywhere else.

I think you misunderstood my statement, and for that I am sorry. Let me clarify: I meant you, like some dealers, buy jades from China on eBay. You have stated this, yes? You have also recently said on Chicochai that you sell some of your stones on eBay, yes?

There are some eBay sellers who buy jade from China on eBay, and sell similar items on eBay. I have shown evidence of one in the past: penumbra2001. This seller and a similar local seller earthworksgallery sell jades for $48.88 and sometimes much more.

One thing seems clear, this may be a very select group. A search for "hongshan" and "archaic jade" on eBay shows only five people in the US whose sale listings contain these keywords. The search result may be anomalous, as it would not include those who have sold in the past.
