I cant imagine people buy this stuff on Ebay

But it says MAME in the product description so it must be better suited for control panels than the ones you'd buy at Home Depot.

Too bad that crap eventually rips or wears thru if you don't cover it with plexi. And I'm pretty sure that color is call "Black Onyx" and not "Marble"

In the sellers defense it is hard to find "Black Onyx", the Home Depots by me rarely have it. Maybe there's alot of people covering their control panels with it (or at least their shelves).

You can't get high bidder email addresses so there is no way to contact them.

You dont need their email address.  Just click on their Ebay username and send them an email via Ebay.....

If someone is too uninformed (or possibly "stupid") to research where to get something for cheap, it is not unethical to sell them a higher priced product of the same caliber.

I do think it is unethical to try to snipe somebody's customers out of spite. Whether it is directing them to another retailer, or selling to them directly, it isn't a good practice.

If somebody was really getting "ripped off" by an unethical, misleading trader with incorrect product description or bad trading habits, I would be all for tipping off a potential buyer. Tipping them off to cheaper prices during an auction isn't acceptable in my opinion.

i wasn't going to tell him--more of a rhetorical question--for all we know he lives in northern alaska and doesn't have a home depot nearby ;D
