Is it illegal to place characters up for sale or is it illegal to sell characters for RL cash ?
Or let me put it this way, could and should CCP ban a person BEFORE they actually sell a character.
So say I don't like a person, I place that persons character up for sale on one of these sites.
Even though I don't even own the character (and the owner has no idea what is going on)
CCP turns around and bans the person.
No I think CCP is doing what it can but it has to wait until someone actually sells the character before banning them.

Dude im under table. IM TALKING FOR HOUR THAT U CAN CHECK THAT EASY, BUT CCP NOT INTERESTED IN WASTING $
So how can you check that easily on a third party site ?
How can you punish someone for a crime they haven't yet committed ?
As far as I know it is not illegal to place your character up for sale, only to actually sell it.

You may not market, sell, advertise, promote, solicit or otherwise arrange for the exchange or transfer of items in the game or other game services unless it is for in-game sales of in-game services or items.
So yes it's illegal to advertise the sale of a character anywhere else than ingame or by use of the appropriate forum and following CCP's rules.
On the other side it is impossible to verify if that sale has been put up by the owner or someone who wan't to harm that owner in any possible way.
So CCP possibly just keeps an eye on those characters and if certain things change which indicate a character / account transfer they can start thier investigation if there indeed has been an illegal transfer and roll out the banhammer.
Exactly, CCP can only act on what they know.
I have no idea why the OP is getting so upset about this.
