Just got this message from one of the marketplaces I work with:
"GEMSTONES FROM IRAN - WARNING
Apparently paypal will not process any payments for products with the word Iran, Iranian etc in the title or description.Please be aware when listing items from Iran to not mention the origin.
One seller has had their paypal account blocked because of this. "
Thanks for the heads up. I have a few stones I was thinking about listing but I will hold off for now. Heaven knows I have plenty more that I can replace them with.
All the best,
Otter
