   (...) Trouble is, unless he can find a lawyer willing to work pro bono, the cost to find out will be prohibitive. Best thing is probably to tell as many people as possible (in the media preferably). And tell eBay you'll boycott them if they don't (...)

     (...) ( speculating idly ) I wonder if all the sites that eBay is challenging in this manor got together, might it possible to get class action status ? If so, then they could all combine efforts which might make it a fair fight after all. Ray (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)

   (...) I just submitted it too. It seems like it requires tons of people to submit anything before they will post it. I'm sure they'll reject it from me too, they reject everything I submit. (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)
