OK... "The SimV Piracy Posse" got another one!

Listing number 3 ... the one with katahu's Ferrari........ is now no longer on EBay.  It appears that the guy's whole account is likely now gone.  The message is not the same type that appeared for the other two... which seemed a little more "mild".  My gues is that katahu...an author himself... complaining directly did the REAL trick here.  ;D


The following is the notice you receive for that item:  



"Invalid Item
This listing (8216427249) has been removed by eBay or is no longer available. Please make sure that you've entered the item number correctly.
If the item was removed by eBay, please consider this transaction cancelled. If anybody contacts you to complete the sale, please ignore the request. Completing the sale outside of eBay may be unsafe and will not be covered by eBay purchase protection programs."

Quoted under "Fair Use"



We CAN make a differenece.

best,

Yup, I sent an e-mail request to Ebay demanding an investigation on that item. The fact that it's now removed shows we are making a difference.
