What about misled copyright infringements?
Here's an example of a real successful sale on Ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=47131&item=3183276076
What recourse/rights do successul bidders actually have if they had purchased the item(s) under the belief that (quoted from Ebay auction): "NOTE TO EBAY STAFF AND VeRO members: We are the legal copyright holders of ALL aforementioned items in this ad. As instructed by our Attorney (held on retainer) we are hereby stating that "we are allowed by law to sell all items listed in this eBay auction, and hereto acknowledge that we have the legal authority to TRANSFER any and all re-sell rights to the auction winner" and it turns out the statement was false?
