Well if it makes you feel better, All or almost all those Ebay auctions are going to get pulled because Ebay has a policy against selling beta software.

Good thing they aren't selling the software, huh?

The people who work at e-bay are some of the most deeply stupid people I've ever e-mailed with. Contrary to your logical argument, they CANNOT tell the difference between beta software and the chance to participate in a beta test even when patiently explained to them in terms a toddler could understand. I managed to get mine sold after 3 tries and risking getting my ebay account suspended, but it was worth it. I have neither the time nor the desire to beta test but I want someone else to get that chance. All I know is that I've been e-mailing with both the people who purchased the keys since the transaction and they are both so excited that I'm really happy for them. The money I made is paying for my ticket to BlizzCon '08.
