ebay sale is a sale, court rules
There will be no more weaseling out of ebay sales after a judge today
ruled against a man who has been refusing to hand over a $250,000
vintage plane he sold on the on line auction site.

In a case that reached the NSW Supreme Court, Peter Smythe sued Vin
Thomas after he changed his mind on the sale of a 1946 World War II
Wirraway plane after the ebay auction had ended.

The plane is understood to be one of five in the world still flying.

Acting judge Nigel Rein, handing down his judgment today, ruled against
Thomas and ordered him to hand over the plane for the agreed amount.

About time.
Maybe some of this attitude will filter down to the small traders.

Does this set a precedent for working the other way around? Eg: Buyers who bid must buy the coin and cannot change their mind? Now, THAT would be something.
