They have an explicit ban on 'catalogues' - the idea being that people were selling said 'catalogues' for $10, and then selling valuable equipment direct to buyer, hence avoiding ebays percentage-based fee on the high cost gear. ISTR that ebay's wording is quite sensible, in that collectible catalogues that have no present-day use *are* still allowed to be auctioned.
But this is really taking the piss. The only free empegs available are to thieves who manage to find one left in a car somewhere. AFAIK, noone outside (and possibly within) Empeg LTD ever legally obtained a free empeg. As such, this auction is clearly fraudulent.
I'd really like Rob to report this one to ebay and get the sucker arrested.
