Bill Silver guide on eBay

Post by e3steve » Mon Oct 05, 2009 11:19 am

More than 10 available........? I'd say it's being scanned & re-bound, but if you need one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HGSE-HON ... 554wt_1165
What's your view on this practise, Bill?

Steve, I'd say if Bill isn't doing that he's being scammed. D

Possibly a moot point, D. The paper publication has been out of print for some years, I believe; but I do know that Bill still sells the whole sheboodle on CD.

It ain't exactly plagiarism; and I'm guilty of scanning the odd page for posting here in order to help our brethren. But, the whole manual; and several! Good for the guys, but not so good for Bill's CD sales....

Steve, while technically it isn't plagiarism( Bill copied a lot of the info) it does appear as if someone is trying to profit from his research. Just seems a little unethical to me....................D
