Help needed - report this Seller

that bastard is selling copies....

http://search.ebay.at/_W0QQsassZplaymoregames0

Please report him that he gets suspended from Ebay before more Amiga enthusiasts are ripped off by him.

Thanks.

Question to seller if it's original. Answer:
Hi,its been cracked into so that you don't have to look thru stupid manuals just to load it..so it maybe a copy.. but is better because you play it straight off the disc without having to look thru the manual for a password..thanx for ur interest.

So is this chap selling just copied disks then? Or is he putting copied cracked games into the original boxes because the original disk's have long since snuffed it?

EDIT I see what your on about now guys, hes printing out inlays and selling them on. I shall report him aswell and get it stopped
Lmao hes even used high-density disks the cheap skate

From what I've heard, WGA is quite good at telling you your totally legal copy is not genuine, seemingly on a random basis, so unofficial servers are probably a good thing. Or you might just object to being treated like a potential thief by MS after you've paid for their product, but there are better solutions to that problem that don't involve buying Windows in the first place ...

I think so, but it doesnt use WGA or any other validity checks.

I should add that my XP is legitimate, but I prefer not to be probed every time I do an update...
