Also at least partly broken in that they rely on Todd's interpretation that
a "sealed bid auction" is not an auction (at least if it doesn't call itself
an auction).
Has anyone thought about my mind exercise of how an eBay auction is
sufficiently different from a sealed bid auction to justify being an auction
for Lugnet purposes where a sealed bid auction is a sale/trade?
I think Todd also realizes that the T&C need some work, at least a clear
definition of what an auction is. This of course based on the fact that he
started a thread to discuss that issue.
