teddie - you obviously know something the rest of us don't, therefore I would ask you to explain how and why a defamation case would be successful, rather than just insisting it can/will be. In other words, prove everyone else wrong, rather than insist (without substantiating the claim) that they are.

Also, with the existance of a feedback removal process via a defamation claim, perhaps you could also explain what laws eBay are breaking by A) allowing people to say what they want, but B) allowing people to defend against defamation and have such comments removed.
