Luke,
Have a question for you.
From what I've seen of eBay the vast majority of stuff on there is new
items. People buying new pillows, towels and craft stuff and reselling
it to the highest bidder. The reasoning behind the ill feeling over
Wendels book seem to be based on taking advantagous of "newbies".
But what is the difference between the buying and selling of the book
vs. buying and selling of pillows and towels? I see no one suggesting
that we contact the bidders of these pillows and towels to tell them
where they can buy it for less.
This is an excellent example of capitalism at work. The bidders are
apparently happy (or they wouldn't be bidding), the seller is happy, and
when both parties are happy this is perfect capitalism.
Unless we are all prepared to sell our engines and literature for
exactly what we paid for them, none of us should be complaining about
the resale price of a book.
Just my 2 cents worth.

P.S. I hope you sold your Rumley for a profit. I don't think you are
dishonest for doing so either.
