    This Professional Shyster is what gives lawyers a bad name.

    He should get his day in court, have the jusdge laugh at him for being so thinned skin and then give him the mutual respect of paying his victims expenses plus a little bonus with a warning, do it again, kiss your “Skinning License” bye-bye.

    Why is he paying the lawyer bills himself. Why didn’t he turn it into homeowners under the personal injury coverage? That is assuming he has that coverage.

    E-Bay should have covered the buyer in this case. They should have in there terms that no litigation can be persued in case of bad ratings. If this seller can’t handle the bad ratings, then E-Bay should kick them because it leads to poor ratings systems and invalidates their whole seller methodology.

    Needless to say, I quit using E-bay years ago due to many reasons. Stay away, far away from E-Bay.

    I hope the buyer gets a chance to sue the seller for falsification of records.

    “Stay away, far away from E-Bay.”

    Be careful Scott, E-bay might sue you for that comment!

    A big biker-dude had been drinking bourbon all day, so he was in the mood to start some trouble.

    He goes into this yuppie-type bar and yells out “Lawyers are jerks!” (I usually use a different word there)

    At first everyone is just staring at him nervously, until one guy approaches him.

    The guy says, “Hey man, you take that back! I take offense to that!”

    The biker looks at him and snarls, “Lawyer, huh?”

    The guy says, “No, I’m a jerk.” (I also usually use a different word there)

    I would represent myself for free. I bet you could do just fine.

    Also, this lawyers $3 mill house is probably beyond his means and is in foreclosure.

    Telling a lawyer that he has the morals of a used car salesman is acutally a compliment. As low as the used car salesman level is, it’s a big step up from the morals of a lawyer. Of course, both are far below any semblance of real morality, and fall into the category of crack addict, adjustable mortgage lender or Speaker of the House.

    Shame on you for insulting the crack addicts and adjustable mortgage lenders by comparing them to the speaker of the house.

    I buy and sell on ebay and there’s something missing in this story. If the guy returned his money, he had no right to post what he posted. Ebay lets you protest feedback and will remove it if it is not warranted. Seems like the defendant is leaving out the part where he was asked to withdraw his negative feedback and either ignored or refused the request. Guess this puts the kybosh on the customer always being right.

    Problem is that the seller DIDN’T refund the money, the guy had to file with Pay Pal’s Buyer protection plan, who refunded his $44.
