eBay Abruptly Cancels AFP’s Sellers Account Over Final Judgment Book

By AFP Staff

On May 8, the massive e-commerce platform eBay abruptly cancelled AFP’s entire seller’s account. In the curt email we received, the anonymous eBay representative said it was due to our selling of Michael Collins Piper’s popular Final Judgment book.

Since the release of Piper’s book in 1993, Final Judgment has sold several thousand hundred copies. AFP continues to publish multiple books written by Piper, who sadly passed away in 2015.

The email states flatly that AFP’s account has been cancelled with no appeal process and one book was removed because it was “putting the eBay community at risk”—an absurd claim to make about a book on U.S. history.

The e-commerce site’s peremptory email follows:

We wanted to let you know that your eBay account has been permanently suspended because of activity that we believe was putting the eBay community at risk. We understand that this must be frustrating, but this decision was not made lightly and it’s important that we keep our marketplace safe for everyone.

Thanks,

AFP still prints and sells copies of Final Judgment, though it has been broken into two books for ease of reading. Prior to his death, Piper had edited the book on several occasions, providing important updates as new facts on JFK’s assassination came to light.

Bizarrely, copies of Piper’s Final Judgment can still be found for sale by various sellers on eBay. A quick search of the site turned up 16 different sellers all offering new and used copies of Final Judgment for sale.

“This may indicate a wave of censorship is coming at eBay,” remarked one AFP staffer.
