Because there's a sucker born every minute, and what better place to 
find them than on ebay, the most crooked web site on the entire 
internet populated by the most crooked people on the planet?  We need 
another auction/store site not conrolled by a monopoly company who 
supports crooked users in order to stay in business and make billions 
in profit each year.  Just my $5.00 tip which goes directly to 
ebay/PayPal fees.  :)
