[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 2996240, member: 561023"] I hate people that are too lazy to do a little bit of research on something that [B]they are trying to sell[/B] [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif[/IMG] I was looking through eBay the other day and happened across a listing for an amp (as I often do). Upon reading the item description the wording seemed vaguely familiar for some reason... Turns out this seller's item description was a direct copy/paste of a review I posted online like 2.5 years ago with the parts of the review that described my personal experiences with said amplifier deleted. Hmmph says Prowler. So I email the seller to see what's up and I get this response that tells me I should basically be flattered that she thought enough of my review to copy it for her auction. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/pissed.gif.9f665f96bc89e98e708dabd4580bb591.gif[/IMG] So - I sent her a second email basically telling her that though in no way am I directly comparing my amp review to a single one of his literary masterpieces I would wager that someone like Ernest Hemingway likely wasn't particularly fond of plagiarists either and found their actions anything but flattering... So this seller sends me another response back this time telling me if I don't like it I can basically go get stuffed. Oh, yeah? I've been around eBay long enough and participated on [I]their[/I] forums long enough that I have quite a few eBay links saved to my Favorites. Listing Violation Report *[COLOR=Blue][I]sent[/I][/COLOR]* Consequently the auction listing has been pulled by the powers that be at eBay. I've now received threatening emails telling me if I'm ever unfortunate enough to meet her that unpleasant things will happen to me. I don't see myself in Oregon anytime soon so I'm not overly concerned about her threats to my continued well-being [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif[/IMG][IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif[/IMG] G'morning, all. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wave.gif.002382ce7d7c19757ab945cc69819de1.gif[/IMG] That's my "WTF?" story for the day. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/imdaman.gif.bc6c552e19aa4ad8c47461144f40eb1a.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
