the real problem with Ebay is that internally they are out of control and have been for some time. Reporting this person did as much good as all of us reporting JEREMYPADILLA. It doesn't matter that they kicked him off over a year ago and that he was prosecuted for using their website to cheat people. You've got a bunch of 21 year olds working at ebay right now, and they really don't give a damn whether you like what they are doing or not.
Until a reputable competitor comes along this is just going to be par for the Ebay course. In my town about 25% of the people are unemployed if you believe what the Village says. People are doing anything they can to make a buck, and sometimes it is not ethical or legal. when one unscrupulopus seller has success selling "old cards" on Ebay you can bet his/her buddies might give it a go too. at the local flea market near where I live you can buy 100 card lots of different pre-war "re-prints". what do you suppose somene would do with 100 M101-4 Ruth cards....hmmmm. It's pathetic really, but check out the "guys/girls who are selling these reprints on Ebay. It's pretty obvious that it's their job....their source of inncome most likely.
It really is hard to believe that Ebay has degenerated into what it is in the sportscards area.
