<p>[QUOTE=&quot;omahaorange, post: 1778156, member: 28199&quot;]Okay, I&#039;ll take a stab at this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks for the opportunity to stand on the soapbox.&nbsp; My general issue is that we throw around the word &quot;ethics&quot; without truly knowing what it means.&nbsp; Many of the threads claiming a violation of ethical behavior stem not from what somebody does or doesn&#039;t do, but the accusation of being unethical because something doesn&#039;t go the way you want it to.&nbsp; the &quot;I think this guy is bad because he wants X amount for this coin, and I only want to pay Y&quot; to &quot;He only paid X for that coin, but he&#039;s asking Red Book value.&nbsp; Why does he have to charge that much, instead of taking just a little profit from me&quot; to &quot;I thought the pictures were blurry, but I bid it on it anyway, but know that I got it it looks horrible so I want to send it back to this rip-off artist&quot;.&nbsp; Again, this may be unscrupulous, but the fact that the buyer failed to do his homework, or took a chance to find it wasn&#039;t to his liking, but it&#039;s not unethical when said buyer could have spent 10 minutes on the internet prior to clicking the bid button, or walked away from a deal instead of &quot;gambling on eBay bad pictures&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
