Mr. Pursglove has simply mastered the art of deception. In my personal experience and others I have found that about 5% of all auctions end in some sort of fraud, whether it comes to getting stiffed completely, or getting defrauded by misleading ads, or counterfeit goods. Mr Pursglove is just confirming that ebay does not INVESTIGATE but 1/100 of 1% of their fraud reports. He speaks the truth, while conveying a LIE. I was recently banned from ebay for contacting bidders on fraudulent auctions, and posting facts on my ebay "about me" page which ebay censored. Ebay simply does not investigate fraud, then reports this fact. Too bad ebay has such a monopoly on online auctions. I think the government should make ebay answer up. The big fraud seems to be this cover up Mr Purseglove.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
