Re: Hombrew being sold on Ebay!
Back to the topic please, this is quite disgusting.
1) Do report to ebay nonetheless, it may prevent future problems like this if everyone complains.
2) Inform everyone bidding that that and further like those are a rip-off
3) Report the seller's page to www.theesa.com
4) Mental2k SPAM the guy to death!
5) If the authors do want to sell a compilation of BOR or something, do that only on author's site for a cheap price
This is what can be called my "2 cents", you don't follow it, I will.

I was actually just about to post that link.
Theres way more emu's being sold on eBay than homebrew, those DreamSNES CDs are everywhere, but when DreamSNES boots up it says 'if you paid for this disk you were cheated, ask the perosn who sold you this disk to give you your money back' why wouldnt people leave bad feedback if they've seen that??
And its more likely that eBay will deal with those selling commercial roms as it definately is illegal.
Re: Hombrew being sold on Ebay!
Hey DarkSavior, what happened to doing something about this? this topic is pretty much dead, and yet there are still loads of homebrew on eBay.

Re: Hombrew being sold on Ebay!
not much we can do, only contact the bidders and tell them they are being ripped off :-/
Re: Hombrew being sold on Ebay!
Really, I wouldn't worry too much about this. Â*If someone wants to be ripped off, let them get ripped off. Â*Now if licenses are being broken somewhere, let the person who wrote the software handle it.
There isn't much anyone can do in these situations. Â* Just let it go. Â*This is going to happen now until the end of time. Â*I'm sure some of you download copyrighted movies, music, and games.....so who are you to criticize, no? A friend of mine even downloaded a movie at work the other day, scaring the pooh out of me. Course, you (who ever was just offeneded) isn't the topic of this thread so I apologize to offending anyone.
I'm not trying to be a tosser, but this is real life.
