Hello fellow eBayers, Below you will see the UACC's CODE OF ETHICS

 I am UACC member #8896 Cristina Reading of Bakersfield, California. I just recently came across this Reviews & Guides section and saw that an eBayer labici in Germany was slandering me for what ever reason.                                                                                                                     labici claims that I include a large lot of UACC COA's which I do not, It is against the UACC Code of ethics. What I do include is a COA, Guarantee of Authentee of Authenticity, Notarized Statement of Facts, History of Items(s) and any other related documents Eg; photos, estate documents etc...    lacibi also claims that I have made $25.000.00 which is totally untrue and that I also have the items professional framed, I took framing & matting classes and do most of the framing myself unless I am under a deadline, then I send the item out to be framed. lacibi  also claims that I have "bad eyes" Had lacibi read my About Me they would of found out hoe the autographs are checked & where I acqiure items, autographs and antiques and costumes of famous people. I have 100% feedback with a total of 910 feedback & 1 mutually withdrawn. lacibi has had 23 bid retractions and 5 issues 4 of which where lacibi claimed "item not received".                         lacibi has been reported for their "inappropriate" Guide comments about me.
