Calling it obscure does not change the fact that you broke the rule. I have no idea if what you did was illegal as I am not a lawyer, but what you did is certainly unethical. There are many tests of ethical behavior, two favorites and easiests for me are the golden rule and the Kantian imperitive. Your actions fail both of them. I would suggest you take the time to think through the logic of explicitly breaking a rule you agreed to because as it stands now all I see is someone digging their heels in. Take a deep breath and explain how breaking the rules you agreed to with ebay is not wrong? How would you feel if they broke their agreement to you after a transaction had been process, maybe by not backing their buyers protection for you after the fact? Buying that coin does not go against the rules set out by ebay.[/QUOTE]
