<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rlm&#039;s cents, post: 266015, member: 7957&quot;]First of all, I am talking something to augment the existing system, not replace it.&nbsp; Like it or not, eBay is the elephant on the block.&nbsp; Getting eBay to be a safer place is going to benefit both the ANA and eBay in the long run.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just as a for-instance and I am sure there are other similar and probably vastly different scenarios;</p><p><br /></p><p>1. A member sees an auction that is a counterfeit.</p><p>2. He logs onto the ANA site and starts a pole (real or fake) with a link to the auction.&nbsp; I am sure that this can be set up using eBay numbers, sorted numerically, cross referenced, and/or whatever to prevent multiple listing of the same auction and facilitate other members finding a specific auction, type, etc.</p><p>3. Other members can then log in to report the same item or vote real or fake.</p><p>4. If an auction gets X votes at Y% for fake, the existing ANA decision makers decide and report it if it is fake.&nbsp; If this works well, it might even be possible (with high enough numbers and %) that eBay get notified directly</p><p><br /></p><p>I am far from as expert on these things, but I cannot see that I am talking anything too expensive.&nbsp; Virtually all the “labor” is volunteer (free).&nbsp; The Cointalk setup has virtually all the requirements for what I am thinking of.&nbsp; The ANA already has a web site.&nbsp; Maybe they can start their own chat line to boot.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am sure there are things I am missing, but I cannot believe there is anything that cannot be worked out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
