I reported several of the listings. Feedback of 3 (of course). I purchase these magazines from the book store they are $15.50 each. Ebay are you paying attention?

Why would it be against the rules? They are selling the magazines at 99 cents, and mailing from the Czech Republic free!! Seems to me they are losing a whole bunch, even if only on shipping.

The last thing I would want to do is download a PDF file from the Czech Republic. Now, do our copyright laws apply to them? Don't know.

Sorry, I didn't notice that. Isn't that what eBay announced recently that they would have to be listed in a different category at a higher price? I find that hundreds of books and magazines from the UK are listed this way, especially in the craft category.

I just can't believe this person must be stupid or something. I hope they spent hours scanning each page and they get removed. These magazines are the best though!

They're also selling a dating service or rather, a "Bride's Shop."
"My name is Alana, I'm the best girl in the World!
And I'm absolutely sure, that I'm the girl of your dreams.
But unfortunately, my friend, because of my virtuosity, I can't offer you myself to be your girlfriend.
But do not worry!
On my site you will find a lot of wonderful girls, one of them could become your girlfriend, bride and even wife...
You just need to buy an address of your happiness!
So, look attentively where have you got! As you can see, you got to the Brides Shop.
And why are you here? I know!!!
You wish to buy an address of your happiness!
As you have already understood it is not a marriage agency, and even not a dating site - this is an internet shop, where you can buy addresses of the girls, who wish to find a boyfriend or future husband.
Everything is simple on my site! I decided not to put complicated profiles and difficult registrations...
In the profile of the girl you see just minimum info, which she left for me, and her photos.
So, you just looking through the gallery of the girls. Add all girls you would like to communicate with to your choice, pressing the special button. Wish you make a lot of friends! But the most interesting thing, that you buy addresses only for 5 Euros!!! So, you can begin an interesting communication with girls!
This story is supposed to have a Happy End! I mean Love and Marriage... What do you think? ...
Don't want to buy at the beginning? Do you want to begin with free communication? Also possible! Press the button of the "Free Gallery"!
So, have fun! The rest I will tell you later!"

It gets better.
"So, So
... I see my, Dear Friend...
You've decided to make a look to a Free Gallery...
You're seemed to be greedy...
Regretted 5 Euros for me in a Paid Gallery... For me, for so pretty and nice beauty.
Ok-Ok, I caught it to my mind... you will remember it one day...
Enjoy! But remember that (how my London father tells) free cheese exists only in a mousetrap!
Relax, I'm joking, joking...
Let's click safely! Here girls are also pretty nice!"

Alana is getting pissy.
"Why did you push this button?
Don't you have anything else to read?
At first will warn you, this button opening enter on my private territory!
Here am I living, Alana!
Here I express my opinion about different sides of Internet Dates.
It is very Hard and Cynical, but truthful! (In my opinion)
So, if you do not want to spoil you appétit before your "Happy Hour", go out from here!
But if you have iron balls, then You Are Welcome In a Severe Truth of Marriage Business! HA!"

I heard that Ralphie has steel balls. I here that Tom wants to change his name to "Sparky" because when Ralphie walks, his balls spark.

This ladies auctions are still going on! I can't believe that she can copy a magazine and send it via PDF file and get away with it. I have had several auctions over the years cancelled, one was a book about Hitler, one was a cross stitch chart that I made on a program of an existing old finished piece I had, etc...
