Last year at the Austin Record Show Ebay had a booth and put on special "classes" to teach the old crusty non-computer owning record geeks how to sell records on ebay.
This class was right near my table and the first class drew a grand total of 3 people who I am sure were there for the free doughnuts after a night of drinking.
As the class began they placed a picture of a record for sale up on the movie screen that they were teaching off of and it was a White Label Promo 45.
I went over, interrupted the class and pointed out to the "teacher" that you could get kicked off of ebay for selling that specific record.
He gave me a glazed look and obviously had no idea what I was talking about.
