I hope this is not slander : ( Mark , Andrew? )

I view eBay as a kind of panderer (of merchandise) ; now if you buy the (kukri) in the red dress and it has a social disease (counterfeit) ..... well that's your problem . They still get their percentage .

Look at all the Chinese junk being openly misrepresented there . Have they done squat about that !?

I think this is a serious problem with the venue and the ONLY way to protect oneself is to be educated .

Caveat Emptor wins the day gentlemen .

You can lead a fool to knowledge ,
But you can't make him think .
