Wow, really psyched to hear that the guide I wrote 1 day ago has already helped to prevent someone from getting ripped off! I guess it was worth the time spent. Also psyched to see that I alreday now have "Top 5000 Guide Reviewer" next to my userID", and 14 out of 14 already found it helpful! Except ironically, it still says in my ebay page that I wrote 0 guides, and I can't find it in a search! I guess it hasn't registered yet. I wrote a lot of shit against ebay, even went after Meg Whitman the CEO, so I hope they're not going to get Draconian on my ass and use that as an excuse to pull my guide. There's nothing specifically in the rules that say "You can't say anything bad about eBay the company or its management", but since they put "inappropriate remarks", they could use that to mean anything!

off course each country as it own laws, and ways to resolve things...but since ebay/paypal are not really interested to resolve this situation we need a person, that knows the law to help us, an expert in these international issues.
if we get 100 people, and each pay 5 US dollar, we get 500 US dollars to hire a lawyer... :lol:

Nice thought, but many lawyers charge more than half that just to sit down with you and tell you how much they're going to charge. So I can't imagine any lawyer taking on a large case like this for 5 small; an international lawyer yet. I think the US government is the one to sic on eBay. They're already hounding eBay with issues that may be related to customer protection. I am not in the US and don't know what the proper US agencies are to contact to register complaints against eBay for not doing anything about the 4GB MP4 sellers. Perhaps someone else here does and can post them. With enough pressure from an outside source like the government (or the press), eBay will have no choice but to f**ing do something about this, or face both criminal charges and reduced customer confidence in ebay. Trust me, anything that will hurt ebay's bottom line, they will respond to! They first have to be convinced their bottom line is hurting. Press reports on the 4GB scandal would certainly help in that area.
