`~~~~~. Many of the advertisers even openly mention the publisher's name. I have no doubt eBay have a department full of people trained to spot listing violations such as these, but they don't appear to be doing anything about the problem, despite myself (and I'm sure many others) reporting these listings frequently in an attempt to bring this to their attention. --------------------------------- . C'mon eBay, when are you going to something about this?
sorry you have totally mis-understood how ebay works. they do not have a dept to spot listing violations such as ยฉ abuse, they do however have a VERO program, a very successful one for those companies who choose to use it, where any ยฉ holder can register and then set up their own department to keep an eye on who is selling their products without authority, the ยฉholder then reports to ebay and the listing will be removed immediately and the seller will get an violation on their a/c
if the ยฉholder is not interested in protecting their product, there is no way ebay could possibly police (and KNOW) WHAT is right and what is not right on the millions of items that get listed every day.
if you see lots of these violations, write to the ยฉholder, they are the ONLY ones ebay listens to about such breeches.

Many repair manuals for older/collectable vehicles are out of print and it is impossible to find second hand ones even on a worldwide net search..
A repair manual can be imperative to a vehicle owner..
Copies, dvds, et al are a godsend to some vehicle owners.
