copyright of band...a bootleg is not an authorized product of a band.

i rather think that ebay isn't really watching certain countries in europe...if he would be from austria or germany, i'm pretty sure he would already have got banned.

it does seem very strange that even with the complants ebay have been getting about him the stuff is still for sale . im not sure bernd if it is a certain country thing. i remember a few years back i tried to sell a dvd. as it turned out it was a bootleg. this i did not know at the time of course. it was taken off ebay within 24 hours and i got a warning . so ya its strange its still for sale

Why should ebay care, they earn money when he sells and dont earn when they close down his auctions.
We're not in this alone.

About copyright I'm pretty sure he breaks the rules. Because there is no copyright on this bootleg dvd, but copyrright on the songs. As I wanted to include an bootleg dvd to my MetClub Membership Packages, I was not allowed due to copyrights. This was an official Metallica statement.

exactly, and this is what i explained to andy already several times!!

we could easily do something against these guys here on metpage...in my opinion access to our tracker shouldn't be so easy...somebody who never uploads anything, shouldn't get access...there are a lot of people downloading stuff from our tracker and never upload a show themselves...it isn't too much to upload 1 show, let's say, every 3 months...this should be possible for everybody...instead of that people with very fast internet have prior status on our tracker and never have to upload anything themselves...i'm sure this ebay seller is also downloading from our tracker.

That's not a bad idea but what if they upload one mp3 show in every 3 months? So nothing worthy, you know. I think a minimum of 5 GB own upload in every month should be more ideal. Or another option is to let members above f.e. 250 posts reach the tracker. If you check it those who never share something back never say thanks or post anything on the forum either.
