Re: For Sale: Stedman's February 2008

Yes, they can claim that the seller is not legally allowed to sell it, and if it's their product, Ebay does what they say. If the software was sold as part of the paper dictionary, the licensing agreement may state that it cannot be sold separately.

I doubt the computer magazines would be happy with people selling the CDs of commercial software that is offered free to the subscribers by some special deal, also.

And I believe M$ was the entity that made all the OEM software sellers include qualifying hardware to be able to sell OEM software.

I don't understand HOW Stedman's can take anything off e-bay??? I can see why they would not WANT it sold on e-bay (obviously they want someone to buy it from them), but I suppose that would be true of any company. Do they contact e-bay and force them to take it off? If they can do that, then I would think Microsoft, etc, could do the same. I don't get it.
