They gave these people an enormous budget, and then (apparently) never asked what they did with it.&lt;p&gt;But hey, they didn&amp;#x27;t know anything unethical was going on, right?</text></comment>

There are too many times sellers, including large ones, make negative comments only to see ramifications occur.&lt;p&gt;When this occurred, I was dumbfounded Wenig and Wymer faced no repercussions from what happened. Plausible deniability is quite the cloak.&lt;p&gt;I could only imagine receiving a funeral wreath for a spouse or having porn addressed to you delivered to your neighbors. Frightening.&lt;p&gt;ebay strikes me as a company living in the past and squandered what they had built.</text></comment>
