I am trying to ask a seller a question.
My question does not contain any payment or contact info, yet is being blocked by EBay from sending. I don't understand.

What is the error message that eBay displays when you try to send it?

Thanks for posting back with the error message. This is the culprit: 830,831,800
To eBay's bots, this looks like a disguised phone number.
Try changing the whole title to just the item # for the listing or try writing model 830, model 831, or model 800 to see if you can get it through that way.
Good luck! : )

OP2 years agoI have Bernina 830 Record machine. The current pedal is type 232. I can't decide which pedal is correct for me. This one or your other listing NGOSEW Foot Control Pedal Bernina Sewing Machine 830,831,800 ROUND PIN Type. They really appear to be the same, but I would like to be sure before I order. Thanks for the help.

Try asking it this way:
What is the difference between a Type 232 pedal and an NGOSEW pedal?
I can see where eBay might interpret your original message as containing "possible" contact information with all the capitalized names, number strings, etc. Keep the question simple to start with.
