I have to start this post with praise for Brickbay. Dan Jezek has created a fabulous place unparalleled by any other service. He has also been very responsive to user feedback. I know a number of changes that I suggested for 'Wanted Lists' have (...) (24 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

You should not be seeking discuss this here. FAR better would be to seek legal counsel, and have them examine the brickbay TOS to see if any of it actually could be legally upheld in court.

I am not going to spend any time checking out the legalize of Brickbay's Terms and Conditions for uses their site. A lawyer can do that if they wish. This is turning into a "lose lose" situation.

What made the second order from Spitz invalid? According to your very own TOS, the seller is still obligated to complete the transaction if it is valid.
