Frank,

The way I see it is a bit differently, I am the one who spent the money to list my vehicle on Ebay, I am the one who got those people who bid on my car to do so. With Eric emailing those people with offers to sell them his car for less money is wrong, not only does it create conflict, but it could create a second guessing nature for those bidders that would have bid higher for my car. Remember, not everyone knows the difference between a Contemporary Cobra and a FFR (or ERA, or SPF, or???), all they see is a pretty car for less money........The wasted time is my own, the opportunity for me to bid higher on the Kirkham 289FIA will be gone if one of those people he contacted decides to not bid further on my car because there is a car out there for less money.My ebay fees, (out the window because of this very same thing), and everything else associated with my auction....So I'm sorry if you feel he did nothing wrong, however, your feelings are misguided because your not in my shoes at this time.......My feelings are as follows, if he wanted to sell his car via ebay, let him spend the money to do so and take his own chances just like everyone else......Nothing more, nothing less...........


Bill S.
