Here we sarcastically look again at Ms Lorrie Norrington's apparent lack of professional ethics and personal disregard for the very policies she creates and oversees.
We also visit her feedback page, and the feedback pages at Toolhaus, where we see another problem with the recent changes, that being that they are deceptive by the way they only go back 12 months, thus not allowing trading partners to view all the facts and figures. (IMO)
This was done at the request of a viewer. I apologize for the crude nature of the video, but it was done impromptu, without time to prepare any elaborations.

You will also note this listing was being flogged as for a charity. I would be very curious to learn what percentage the named charity actually ended up receiving when all was said & done? Ebay's charity service, Mission Fish,has been questioned numerous times, from my recollection.

The contents of this video fall under fair rights use. The creator of this video has no commercial or financial motivations. Further, materials used herein are integral to the parody element of the video, as I expose the hypocrisy shown by Lorrie Norrington to the ebay 'community' at large in bitter parody. There is and has an obvious claim to the transformative value. This is an expressive work, it provides social benefit, by shedding light on an earlier work, and, in the process, creates a totally new one. ;p
