It's eBay that enforces these rules, not Gixen. Below is a more detailed message as received by eBay:

Dear Buyer

To prevent the circumvention of the http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/weapons.html eBay.co.uk and http://pages.ebay.ie/help/policies/weapons.html eBay.ie Weapon and Knives policy, it is not possible for you to bid on, or buy this item.

It can also be due to being on a different jurisdiction from the seller, is your delivery address also in Canada ?

Most people post as a Guest on this forum, forum posting ids are entirely separate from Gixen site ids. This is so that people don't even need to register with the Gixen service before they are able to post here.

Hi, bit surprised when I got this back for a penknife I was bidding on (not eligible) as i'm nearer than i'd like to being a pensioner !!!! item number 203456907585
I have long understood the case for not selling knives on e-bay especially to anyone under age, however surely being a fairly long time member plus new ebay checks to ensure users are who they say they are, should enable long term users / collectors to bid on items like this ?? i've always found it odd ! is there anything I can do to stop it happening in the future? thanks in advance. :? :?
