    Default Who to be mad at - Mom or Wife or ...

    I'm not sure who I'd be matter at my mom or my wife if this auction were my stuff.

    In reality, he should be mad at himself for leaving it at his mom's house, but I'm sure that's not how it will go down.

    Id be pissed off if my mom was selling my stuff. I probably have to leave alot of it here anyways. I am gonna tell my mom not to sell anything so she better not.

    Years ago I had a mother trade in hers sons collection when he went to college. I wasn't at the store and the employees paid 25 cents trade 10 cents cash per game. Thats what I told them to pay for old games that they didn't think we could sell.

    well guy had 600+ boxed nes. Including flinstones II

    I dont know how the law stands in the US, but this would be a risky buy in the UK.

    1. its stolen property, it would get confiscated
    2. you could be prosecuted for recieving stolen goods. knowingly as the opening line reads.

    "HERE I AM LISTING MY SONS COLLECTION OF SYSTEMS, GAMES ETC. HE IS AN ADULT AND MARRIED AND HIS WIFE SAYS HE NEEDS TO DOWN SIZE ON THE COLLECTING. THIS IS WHAT IS LEFT AT MY HOUSE SO I'M SELLIN IT"

    STOLEN !!!

    I would also expect that it says somewhere in ebays rules that you should own the goods you are selling, otherwise that would lead them open to being done for "handling stolen goods"

    There is a sayng in the US; "Posession is 9/10 of the law". If she had bugged him to remove the stuff from her house, and he failed to do so, then he would have a hard time going after her for selling it.

    Either way, I think this auction is bullshit. If I were that guy, I would divorce the wife toot-sweet.
