| cointalk in coinworld
well when i was reading the coinworld when i came back from school today i looked at the letters to coinworld and one was saying something like about how he/she belonged to cointalk and about what Zaneman to protect the buyers in the fake 1799 dollar on ebay
thats pretty cool cause cointalk might get some new members and maybe ebay will see it and unban Zane
also i was wondering who sent it?

He managed to get ebay to file an unpaid item strike against me, so I left him negative feedback. The next day I was banned, and not the seller who broke the law. Ebay refused to reinstate my account, until for some reason (I strongly suspect it was due to everyone's efforts here), the seller was banned from ebay, even then it took them a long time unfortunately.

Also, were you reading this online, or in the print version? I'm fairly certain I know who wrote the letter, but I'll let them reveal themselves if they wish, it was a most excellent letter. : )
