Thanks Leon. I'm talking about situations where there is no ebay rule violation, but an employee with a personal vendetta has created a violation. It's basically improper use of company information by an employee and I would think that the higher-ups would frown on that. Winning the case is not the issue - it is making ebay go to the trouble of having to send someone to small claims court, thus having to go through the process of figuring out which employee caused them the grief. And firing that employee.

People tend to think of corporations as entities in themselves, which they are; however, they are also obviously composed of a lot of individual meat-based people who make stupid individual decisions, often illegal, that the other people in the company would not approve of. Basically, this wasn't ebay that did this to Chris - it was a person. Same in my situation - someone who likes to have fun at the expense of others, had fun at my expense. Nothing truly evil - just using company resources to make my life a little difficult for a few moments.

Turnabout (turned up) is fair play.
