Even so, CD's and DVD's don't just have one cover or one version. Maybe you're after, say, the European version of a CD for your collection, because there's an extra or different track on it than the US version you've got. You might be a collector looking for that limited edition copy, or the Director's Special Limited Uncut Extended Limited 3-Disc version of a DVD.

It's ridiculous. It's just boggles the mind. Like selling a car and then, after a seller comes round and looks over the Ferrari you're selling for a bargain $5000, you take his money, and then handover the keys to that rusted-out Lada you've had up on bricks out back for the last ten years.

"Hey, I said I was selling a car..."

What's the bet eBay then takes the line "Whatever happens between buyers and sellers is none of our business."

I think it's a cheap and easy grab for cash to get in those new to eBay who didn't want to/couldn't be bothered taking pictures of the item they're selling.
why you got to knock on Ladas?

Would you prefer a rusted-out one to a Ferrari?

Facebook have done something similar recently. Unless you chose not to allow it, they can use your images for their own in-site advertising.

Yeah, I had gotta a message from a friend regarding the facebook one. I changed my settings real quick on that one.

It's a shame when your pics can't even be your pics anymore.

I ask for actual photos and if they won't send me any, I move on. Simple as that.

The answer to that question doesn't have any relevance to the prior question which was rhetorical.

Blue, are Americans allowed to travel there? Or just not allowed to import stuff from there?
