I wish it was a worldwide auction. I'd bid, just to reaffirm good ebay behaviour.

I had this interesting discussion the other week about ebay. Bidding (and winning) in good faith for an ebay auction (and I presume selling as well) has to be an overall economic benefit above and beyond the immediate goods/service gained, because it makes other people trust the "system" with each successful auction. It must add to the social capital. So even if you are burned once in a while, giving up on the trust altogether has a lot more bad implications than just saving oneself from the odd dodgy brother.

Now how can this be shoehorned into MBA business practices???
