Dr.Koos...to warn them of auctions that don't meet your criteria/approval, everytime you bid and retract premeditatedly for no other reason but to run interference with an auction that the seller has not cleared with your tolerances, YOU yourself are in violation of Ebay by-laws, and what if you're WRONG? YOUR pencils DON'T have erasers? You seem to have a huge problem with Ebay in general. Perhaps you'd like to see them go "Out of business"? Is that your mission statement? It's a serious question. Over and over, you, the Behrens Boys, and Dan expound on the evils of Ebay. There's a reason why Ebay considers it a violation to spam bidders/winners. It's VIGILANTE-ISM. Where do you draw the line? First, it'll be, "that card is NG..a fake", then from there you'll want to impose your will on which pieces you think the seller paid too much on and want to spam on THAT accord, then at some point, it'll just be open season on Ebay sellers. SOME kind of order, or rule, MUST be maintained and Ebay has decided, obviously by the structure and wording of their rules which is very clear on the subject, "Spamming of Bidders and Winners WILL NOT BE TOLERATED". THIS, plain and simple, is why you 4 are SO frustrated by Private Auctions. Because you can't get in there and meddle any other way but by bidding, retracting with a contrite reason, and risking exposure to Ebay Investigations, since the option of bidder spamming is not open to you. Admit it. Am I lying?.
Imagine the hobby without Ebay. Collectors who live 200 miles from the nearest major shows will be denied cards for their collection. Professionals who can't MAKE the time to get to the shows, will have NO options to add to their collections other than on- line auctions (and these are ALL Private to boot!!!) by non-conglomerate Auction Houses. The way you guys go on and on about Ebay, one would think you'd be elated to see it diasappear!
