How do retailers advertising the speed camera as a freely available resource from a public forum, but charging a £9.99 fee to install it fare in this discussion?

A good question! It would depend on how clear they made it that the database was ours. Name 'em! _________________ Darren Griffin

Since asking the question, the link has been changed in the post I saw on here but the site is http://uksatnavltd.com/
Quote: | Most new SatNav systems now allow the importing of customised POIs (points of interest) such as speed camera locations. This database is a freely available resource, collated by a public internet site, and made available for download.
However, to make this easier for our valued customers, we will now supply the latest database on CD when requested (just mention it when ordering) at no charge.
In addition, if you would like UK SatNav to install the databse onto your new system for you, we can do this for just an additional £9.99. Please call us on 08450 SATNAV for more details. |

As it's on CD that is 'distribution' which is a breach of our terms. I'll be speaking with them. Thank you. _________________ Darren Griffin |

It seemed that it might be a useful service to install this for some of our new customers, but hadn't realised we were breaching the terms. This offer has been withdrawn.

5821524592
(he has 20 available at £1.25 each)
He says "Buyer wont be disappointed".
(well they will be when they find out they paid for a free product).
Somebody should just buy the lot and then not pay (if they dont mind getting negative feedback) - just an idea!! |

I've reported the one remaining auction of the previous two. The last one is a link so not a breach although I'm amazed that anyone could be stupid enough to pay for a link  _________________ Darren Griffin |
