Editor's note: Since publication of this story, the auction item has been removed for the third time. None of the item identification numbers in this article remain valid.
An eBay seller who previously promised to deliver a certified copy of President Obama's actual birth certificate – from a hospital in Mombasa, Kenya – has twice had his listing removed from the popular auction website.
In a third listing, however, the seller calling himself "colmado_naranja" has explained why the birth certificate was twice yanked by eBay administration.
"The first cancellation was done in what eBay describes as being in the interests of keeping my account safe," the newest listing claims, referring to the now scrubbed item # 160344374585. "eBay was under the impression that a third party had accessed and compromised my account, that this third party put up the Barack Obama African birth certificate auction and that I had no knowledge of the said listing."
As WND reported, colmado_naranja's original listing claimed, "President Barack Hussein Obama II was born in The Coast Provincial Hospital at Mombasa in Kenya at 7:24 p.m. on August 4, 1961."

Oh my... I don’t have my special bio-suit to go over there... LOL...
Personally I have a lot of trouble believing the BC will be found on Ebay. If someone wanted to buy it that would be fine but I hope they don’t want to pay very much.
“Afro-Latino”
Since I live in Panama, what the hell is an “Afro-Latino?”
I await your explanation before I pop.
I feel like Mike Rowe when I go there.
They mentioned my name on KOS.
I feel so dirty.
I have been contacting the seller via ebay and got this message:

You said — If someone wanted to buy it that would be fine but I hope they don’t want to pay very much.

I think it would be a marvelous thing to keep in the family and pass down as an inheritance. Some day, the family could grant it to the National Archives ... “the birth certificate no one ever found has been donated by the Adams family for the National Archives”... LOL...
OMG! So they watch things over here... hoo-boy!
Apparently, Ebay has a rule against selling birth certificates. When did they put that rule in place.
Now the auction is for the True Story and you just happened to get the birth certificate.

Well, I hate to say it, but WorldNetDaily did report the other day that the Ark of the Covenant was going to be revealed, yesterday, on Friday.... LOL...
Hey..., and I like WorldNetDaily, so I don’t got anything against them... :-)
DU and KOS are strange.
The discussions have no educational value as they often do here.
F bombs everywhere.
I rarely look because it’s so nasty.
They really hate us though.
It might have something to do with our being able to post coherently without being obscene.
I think that they also have a rule against selling bogus crap, too.
Like many or most Cubans, Puerto Ricans and Brazilians. Spanish speaking, mixed race, black and native Indio. Mestizo.
I have no idea. I thought the article and subject were interesting.
I’ll send him/her your post
You asked — Why is he selling it for peanuts at auction? When eBay gets a big chunk of the proceeds?
—
Ummm..., let’s see if anyone here is smart enough to have the answer for that question.... :-)
Who at Ebay is in obozo’s pocket?
Well, if the guy genuinely believes it to be authentic, the notoriety achieved by putting it on eBay would be priceless. I’d assume he expected it to be pulled.
If it’s a scam, he has multiple copies and was going to sell a whole batch of ‘em, lol.
