<p>[QUOTE=&quot;majorbigtime, post: 758477, member: 19434&quot;]Read more carefully--the Ebay statement is just a self-serving sales pitch and there is no mention of any violation of law. Ebay rules are just that--Ebay&#039;s own self-protective rules. &quot;The safer way to trade&quot; is&nbsp; baloney--Ebay offers no meaningful buyer protection (the only protection is through Paypal and credit card use).</p><p><br /></p><p>I suspect there are many &quot;off-Ebay&quot; transactions daily. While they may not be &quot;fair&quot; to Ebay and do violate Ebay rules, they are not unlawful (the interstate commerce laws regulate the auctioneers, not the buyers).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>That is a crock --it is the seller&#039;s property and he or she can sell it at any time. Your scenario would constitute a violation of Ebay rules so the seller might get a demerit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
