My auctions started to be delisted. EBay has a program called VeRO which is their division to handle a company's complaint of IP/copyright infringement. EBay, and I can't really fault them for this, defaults to companies to police their IP. So if something is infringing, they tell ebay about it and the listing is removed. I had been told that the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) was the entity responsible for the complaints on my auctions (two at the time). A quick web surf shows that Vivendi (who bought out Sierra and Blizzard a few years back) is in fact a member. For those of you not aware, the ESA sponsors E3, and is mostly just the legal/lobbying body for some game companies. They are very pro-DMCA.
