runscottIf ebay truly stayed completely out of everything, and simply provided a "no rules" internet flea market, as they calim whenever we complain about people like Eagle8016, then that would be one thing.
But, instead, they present the illusion that they are actually policing things by authenticating autographs, creating complex rules, protection stuff, etc. This provides a false sense of "security" for bidders, which is exactly what Eagle8016, Bellyfly, etc., depend on.
Keep in mind - it's all about money. Ebay has absolutely no scruples and will do whatever it takes to make a buck, until someone puts their foot down in a way that damages them financially.
