That is EXTREMELY sick.  And he's charging people $10 for that single piece
of information.

I wish I could add on to the bottom of his auction and tell everybody to
simply go to walmart.com.

But, one other possibility: He was sick of seeing 8458s go for over $100 on
ebay, and was trying to deflate the market for them a bit.

You're too nice, Chris.  :)  Actually, he's been selling them for over $100
on eBay himself... As if that wasn't enough of a profit, now he has to
charge people for his source of cheap sets!

Pure speculation on my part. Hey, why not put up your own auction for $0.02
and send the info to all bidders? Not sure if this is against eBay TOS or not.

Yes, I think that's against the eBay TOS cuz it's "interefering" with his
auction.
