 That Tyrell P34 will go for LOADS more than the current bid!

Ye Gods!  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I decided to add that Tyrell to my watch list but because eBay screwed up their security system in February and got hacked I had to change my password and what a rigmarole THAT was! It took me TWO HUNDRED and TEN key presses before they would accept it, and that included a cynical email that said '....because you asked to change your password....' etc.

It wouldn't have been so bad if they hadn't already suggested I change it back in February!

It's about time some of these people took some responsibility for their lack of attention to detail.

Actually, considering that they only got hacked the other day, I think they should be praised for both admitting it publicly and then making their users change their password in response.

Of course, they deserved to be damned for having such poor security that it seems any man and his dog could get in and steal the passwords in the first place.  :banghead: :banghead:

I didn't have any difficulty changing my password, beyond the usual one of thinking of one which was different and secure.   :banghead:

I recommend everybody who has an Evilbay account (or three, as I have one on .com.au, .co.uk, and .com) to change their password(s) ASAP.

Weaver, those figs are splendid looking  :thumbsup:, and I have little to no interest in that scale / facet of the hobby, they really give a feel of action and control.
the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances.

It wasn't the other day, that was when they announced to the world in general that it had happened, but it actually took place in February. The UK Information Commission ate taking them to task for taking such an age about telling their customers about it.
