DavidI have to agree with Scott on this one. Your argument has been that if someone puts up on eBay an item that substantially misrepresented, everyone should automatically give the seller the benefit of the doubt until the auction is over. If this is your philosophy, what is your approach for the man who was selling the fake T206 Wagner with a BIN of $1,700,000? Do you suggest we keep quiet about Libertyforall, as he hasn't yet disclosed his motivation?
When an item that is offered on eBay with bidding in the thousands of dollars, and the item is substantially misrepresented, the seller has some explaining to do-- no ifs, ands or buts. That goes for Libertyforall, that goes for MastroNet, that goes for Dr. Koos and that even goes for Scott if the time ever comes. You apparently say that the benefit of the doubt should be the auctioner of a misrepresented item, I say the benefit of the doubt goes to the potential winning bidder.
