MrRetroGamer Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 Well I assume it had to happen, it ALWAYS does. Some event or tragedy and before you know it, someone else is trying to make money off of it. At about 10:00AM I did a search on eBay for "space shuttle" and got about 800 hits. I just did one now and got about 1200! Look at how one seller is so nervy selling photos he probably downloaded from the NASA site on CD, and has the balls to say in the auction (of which he has 100's newley listed of the SAME THING) "You should BUY NOW, as this sale will undoubtedly be ended promptly by eBay." http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?View...sort=3&rows=250 People like this make me sick, I am totally disgusted! Do you part and report to eBay here: http://pages.ebay.com/help/basics/select-RS.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaManFan Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 I hate to say it, but the first thing I said to my wife when I saw the photos of debris was, "I wonder how long before one of those goes on eBay." Sick I know, but that's what I expect of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paralistalon Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 Shouldn't you get in trouble for mass negative feedback spaming? I know if I was that seller, I'd file a complaint against you. I don't care how sick you think a person's auction is, such an attack is uncalled for and immature. That's just my opinion though. I don't agree with the auction. I doubt people would have bought that item anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 26 negs and rising, 9 distinct users! This will be quite the mess for Ebay to sort through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRetroGamer Posted February 2, 2003 Author Share Posted February 2, 2003 As of 8:00PM EST, there are 2000 hits for the words "SPACE SHUTTLE" on eBay. That does not come as any surprise. And, the seller mentioned above is getting bombarded with negs every few minutes. Yes, as said above by Paralistalon, perhaps mob violence is not the answer, but sometimes "street justice" is all some people understand! Obviously, many people are OUTRAGED by his actions. If you have self-respect, you DON'T use a national tragedy to profit from, it's just wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
