eBay's Blocking Refrigerant Listings
eBay
If you need (or sell) R12, R22, R134a refrigerants (basically any HFC) eBay's starting to block sales and remove listings.

Just had a couple listings removed and confirmed with support staff they're no longer supposed to be allowing sales.

May be allowing sales if picked up not shipped ?

Not for nothing, You can thank the current government for this.
Soon there will be millions of older cars with no access to R134a....what happens then? Junk them and get e new car with YF1234? And then in 5 more years, that will be outlawed and on to the next up and coming refrigerant?

Do the environmentalists have any idea how much energy goes into manufacturing a brand new car, I wonder

I read last week that a certain top-tier FEDGOV official wants to eliminate ALL refrigerants and air conditioning systems. So this latest news doesn't surprise me.
