Posted: Mon Jan 02, 2006 5:39 pm Post subject: Ebay Rip Off!!!!!!! |
|
|
I can't believe that some scroats on ebay are still selling information that is available for free and getting away with it 8O
For example:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5651594967&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RSECK_Pr8_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT
And this person has an ebay shop, feedback of 975 (which means a lot of people have been conned). Why aren't ebay or anybody else doing anything about it??
I think that they should be shot on the spot for praying on people that don't know better!!!!! _________________ -------------------------------------------------------

Nice 1 Darren. It is out of order that you have to check through Ebay to ensure nobody is selling rip off versions of yuour software or database ect. Surely ebay should be more responsible and try looking for some of this themselves.
You can't be expected to check it all the time yourself surely. _________________ -------------------------------------------------------

Yes but have you seen his little "get out of jail" attempt .

I couldn't agree more that this is a lame attempt to try and make a profit of something that is not theirs.
I've taken this from the same page as the database can be downloaded from:
