Unfortunately there's a dozen sites like this, so whenever you an internet search for a meteorite they pop up if the meteorite happens to be on ebay.
The reason they do this is because ebay has a referral program, so if someone clicks on an auction link on one of these sites and wins the ebay auction, the site owner gets a commission. Not really a way to fight this if the site owner is well hidden, unless you have the money to hire lawyers to pursue it. -Yinan On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 5:31 PM, Stuart McDaniel <[email protected]> wrote: > How do they change prices on closed ebay auctions? > > > > Stuart McDaniel > Lawndale, NC > Secr., > Cleve.
