Does the mega key 2, its use or sale, infringe on copyright??



I tried selling mine on ebay, only to have it pulled on the grounds that it is a modification which infringes on copyright laws and ebay policy. Other people had the same item for sale and their items remained listed.  I wasnt impressed  



What are your thoughts on this copyright issue???

    If you list anything on eBay like CD's, DVD's or videos games and even mention such words as modified, pirate, bootlet, reproduction, fake copy etc there is a decent chance it will get picked up by the system and removed. Even if originally what was being sold did not infringe and copyright issues eBay has anally rigid guidelines that they won't budge on even if there isn't any real issue. I have been blatantly told by eBay employees that "although an item has been removed and found there isn't a problem after all it cannot be listed again" because it still falls under their dumb blanket unrealistically unbending rules. F**k eBay!

    it depends on what it is. there are TONS of reproduction games on there and ebay doesn't give two hoots if you report them yet put up a flash cart and it will be gone before it even lists.



    I've had these types of things removed from craigslist even. its crazy.

    I have a boxed one and can't sell it like the plague. Not sure even how much it's worth! Good luck!
