I'm sick of B&O manuals on ebay!

I'm not sure if Paypal would be the best payment method.
As soon as Paypal is used, all Ebay regulations are set aside.

Hi:

 

I don't know who it is but  I seem to remember that someone from here complained directly to the person doing it and he replied with something like "only trying to earn a living guv" (well probably not the guv bit).

 

Totally out of order as far as  I am concerned. As a student I am on a bit of a tight budget. However come September  I will be a fully employed teacher and will take out membership. That said, if I needed a manual I would ask someone nicely on here - I wouldn't countenance for one second buying one off of him/her although I think it was/is a him.

 

Thanks

Well that was me who challenged one of these sellers who I KNOW to have joined Beoworld as a silver member for one year & promptly downloaded every single manual on site for sale on ebay. The message he sent to me went quite a bit firther than "only trying to earn a living" and was in fact a pretty nasty twisted xenophobic rant blaming the influx of non - nationals (that isn't how he put it) for his need to resort to this to make a living.

There seems to be a fair few others doing exactly the same now though. I too used to report these to ebay on a daily basis until I decided my sanity & time were worth far more than worrying about such people.
