eBay Outrage
It has come to my attention that ebay no longer allows the sale of Teacher’s Edition Textbooks. The claim I’ve been hearing through the message boards is that non-teachers, namely students, are buying the answer keys for their own use.
So what? If it is a college student, that person is an adult and has a right to buy it from anywhere else on the web. If it is a pre-college student, why isn’t the parent watching them more closely? Don’t punish the rest of us because some kids are cheating. ebay isn’t for kids. BUT…Kids are also buying rated R videos, mature books, weapons, diet pills, and pretty much anything they need to self-destruct. Why take away the off-chance that they could absorb some knowlege from copying the right answers for their homework.
It just doesn’t make sense. Something else must be up…

Too right Ebay is just a big machine and needs to look at its self a little closer some people are being punished because others showed incentive ??if not respect for morals.

Seems the teachers are more concerned with counting wrong answers than Educating. If the goal is to learn, every avenue should be used. Johnny can’t read because teacher is anal impacted.
