JOHN "BO DUKE" SCHNEIDER CLASHES WITH EBAY

Actor John Schneider indicated Wednesday that he intends to take the more conventional route of selling his General Lee car, used in the Dukes of Hazzard TV series, through a reputable automobile auctioneer. His decision came after a buyer of the vehicle, who bid nearly $10 million for it on eBay, appeared to renege on the deal and eBay accused Schneider of not accepting its advice to employ a third party to pre-approve bidders. In a statement, Schneider said, "When eBay decided to put my auction on their home page, it became their auction." Schneider noted that at one point the bidding had reached $6 million but that eBay had later scaled it back to $2 million. That figure, he said, "must have come from somewhere." Implying that he may take legal action not only against the reneging buyer but also against eBay, Schneider said, "When a multi-billion dollar company takes ownership of an event, in this case an auction, I believe they take responsibility for the outcome."

Hello Did you ever get back the sellers fees on the car??? I also saw where you was going to place it back on ebay,,, did you, I missed it if you did. I just wanted to know as I know that ebay as well as paypal has screwed many people out of millions of dollars with their little rules. Just for one,,,,,, I guess its a half way leagle but unthought of way is... If you buy something on ebay and make a payment with paypal and they take it from your bank or credit card, they take it out instantly........ but if you transfer it to your bank account or the card, It takes days for it to go arrive.... If they can take it out instantly you know they can send it back Just as fast. They know that as long as they have our money they are drawing intrest on it. their are millions of paypal members with money awaiting to show up at the bank everyday. Just look at the money they are making off of just that. But that is not the point. they have many little rules to screw us and know we can't do anything about it. If they screwed you I hope you take them to court and sue them for 20 million over what they actually owe you.... I know it wont help any but Ill be setting back here with a smile on my face and chearing you on. They have finally met up with some one that has the ability to do something and I hope you put it to them.
