    Just had a response from the seller but it doesnt make any sense

    hey i have paid for the items, i do not kown what wrong with you, why do not send me the the link and left such feedback? I did sent you many emails with my proof of my paid ,and why you did not reply me? .......

    that doesn't sound like any English I know!

    also, it seems from the reply that he thinks you are the seller ???

    Selling links on Ebay doesn't bother me... they are just want to make a penny because they are desperate...

    Why waste your time because I don't. I just get on with my life... you people sound like you're Mary Whitehouse. :o

    The worst ebay can do is a put a strike against my name, I've never had any so it doesnt matter. I really think they wont because the item is banned anyway.

    If everyone on here who has an ebay account were to buy and non pay, and post negative feedback, it would

    1. stop others paying for this info, cos he'd have such a bad rating

    2. Make ebay do something about this scumbag!!

    It will take ebay ages to do anything about this scumbag, hence the direct action!!!

    Good idea, I'll set up a new ebay account and do as you suggested!
    No reliance should be placed on the above.

    i agree - it's not right what they are doing but there are lots of bigger problems in the world.

    besides - think of the time you are wasting winning these auctions and posting feedback - hardly a money saving expert way to sped your time is it?

    also - he could justifiably file a non paying bidder alert against you and ebay would do zilch to stop him - 3 of them and you are kicked off ebay

    move on with your life and spend your time more productively - unfortunately we dont live in utopia

    Whats the big problem, he makes it clear what hes selling i.e a link

    Why cant people benifit from a good deal when they probably wouldnt ever of come across it any other way?

    why are people so up in arms over this? seems to me there are some very short sighted people on here.

    I look at it this way:

    The more people use this code (whether they got it for free or not), the higher the liklihood that some of these trial users will become regular CPW prints customers.

    This increases the profits for CPW and allows them to be able to afford to create more free offers for us ALL to benefit from in future?

    people will buy things off ebay that are freely available elsewhere - used chewing gum etc? why shouldnt they buy a code thats freely available and benefit from it like the rest of us? At the end of the day they feel they are getting a good deal - whats wrong with that?

    Why doesn't someone just post up the link / info on ebay for 1 pence.

    Make it clear that no purchase is necessary. that way the info is out there, people may or may not become regular customers and this guy makes zilch for selling what others (in the know) are sharing.

    You could even suggest if this helps you give 50p to charity........ or even suggest visiting one of those sites that gove charity some money for free.
