eBay

I was looking on ebay today, and there are people trying to sell gmail addresses like [email]xbox.live.support@gmail.com[/url] ( <---fake...just an example)
Who do they expect to buy it?

ok, their are aloooot of stupid things on ebay....like i saw the other day this item that had 10 bids and what it was was the "i'll buy anthing award". Which was probally made in some computer program and then you plug your name into it. You can sell almost anything on ebay these days, and people will get it just to get it.

I think selling GMail invites on Google is fine.

If people don't realise that there are hundreds of websites giving out GMail invites, then they deserve to be ripped off.

I'm quite sure you're not allowed to sell Gmail invites at all

i use ebay, and the funny thing is, it probally cost more to list it than it is worth....so the ones that are going for like 99 cents, they are probally only getting like 50 cents for it cuz the rest is going back to ebay...they are a bunch of idiots. And their are people that were selling them in packs....lmao....anyone that would buy more than one is stupid because they should know that you only need one and they you get like 100 more.

You're not allowed to sell e-mail addresses or GMail invites on sites such as Ebay.
