Hello :)
I would like to now if it's legal or not selling on eBay links to other website who offer rebates to electronics. Everyone can eazy find that website but this guy is selling information, links to their rebates anyway. His title auction is kinda misleading but if you read auction descripion - it clearly says what he sells..link to rebates. Is it illegal that he makes money from doing this?
Thanks for any respond:)

I would find it kind of hard to be illegal to sell anything that could be gotten for free. I will be happy to sell you a link to Free Advice Forums... low cost: 125 dollars for the next 15 minutes only!

Perfectly legal.... at least until either eBay stops it as a violation of the TOS or the 'linked vendor' tells him to stop referrals to their website.

If this really concerns you, you might contact ebay and let them know of this guys posts (they likely won't do anything as they are at least getting listing and closing fees from him) or contact the 'linked site'

Is it illegal that he makes money from doing this?
Nope. Further proof that P.T. Barnum was correct.
