I have to agree that the reply was rude. And we all know that IMDB and Wikipedia are FULLY researched sites that are 100% accurate!

Arrogant eBay sellers. Gotta love 'em. Way to go, Cindy Harris and Leana Lee.

It's likely that the item won't even get a bid because those things are a dime a dozen. Their starting bid's ridiculous for an 8x10 you can get for cheap elsewhere.

Regarding the IMDB info, you can get that information removed by notifying their database managers:

At this point, I'm thinking we should just AI her and be done with it!

I'd send the information to Megan McDermott at IH.

Crashing.

It was very rude of the Seller. I do a lot on eBay (both buying and selling) and I would appreciate receiving information that is incorrect. For one thing, it helps items sell better when your info is accurate.

I also ofter tell sellers when items are mispelled. I want them to get top dollar too and if something is off by just one letter, it can drop your item from a search. For example, the Ohio State yearbook is called Makio but for some reason people list it as Markio.

Yesterday, someone had an old fraternity pin that they knew nothing about. I could tell from the picture that he was looking at it backward and using the engraving as the fraternity name. He wrote me a very nice note back when I was able to identify it for him.

But by identifying it you also helped any collectors who hadn't noticed it yet since it was not marked correctly. You have no idea how many "helpful" people identify our badges for the seller and they go from no activity to a lot of activity on ebay.
