I must say, I agree. Which is the greater fraud--the attempted selling
of a TP for a fantasy price, or the attempted forcing of the dealer to
actually get that price?
You have to prove that you were damaged in order to succeed. Other
than heart palpatations at the thought of getting one for that price,
you can't.
This is not a reasonable thing to fight and harms the cause of *real* fraud.
