Good. Then tell me, specifically, how a bidder on ebay is protected as a third-party beneficiary. Which of the exceptions to the doctrine of privity apply to ebay bidders, and please provide the specific facts that will qualify an ebay bidder for protection as a third-party beneficiary to a contract formed between ebay and the seller.

....and a competent lawyer is clear and specific when drafting, leaving nothing to speculation or supposition.

If you will provide me with the EBay contract(s) that were in place at the time of the events described in posts #6 & #9, and then pay me my hourly rate to review the documents and research the law in the controlling jurisdiction (assuming that there is only one) with regard to both contract and tort issues, I'll be happy to do so.

Sleep well counselor.
