Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Some mini geared motors on eBay


Even though I'm not the one selling these motors, I do know for a fact that
the seller cannot do this. Since they are already posted on e-bay, and there
are already bids for the motors, much like the bidders who as soon as they
bid they enter a binding contract to purchase the motors he is legally bound
to sell them to the highest bidder on e-bay. Essentially it is illegal for
him to remove the item from auction to sell to you, even if you do offer a
higher price. If you want the motors you HAVE to register and bid on them
with e-bay.

Done that... brittle... if you use them on paper then flex it... and gold is
low on my list as suable conductors... the only advantage gold has is
corrosion... I am seeking something flexible... just think of a folded
paper/plastic bot that uses it's own body shell as the PC... I have used
vacuum formed pieces and free formed around it... looks cool... but I was
conjecturing "Ideals"... true eloquence... maybe with the next generation
plastic???
