OK, call me stupid, but for the life of me I cannot understand how it is 'legal' to sell coupons---I would think the coupon or manufacturing industry would ban this--but seeing all the formula checks, diaper coupons from the paper, etc for bid on ebay really confuses me...so, anyone know--just 'wondering', but it seems such a strange practice to me, and at some level abusing this system of companies offering coupons in good faith, and then folks grabbing as many as they can and selling them...am I nuts?

I believe it is ok as they are stating they are charging for their time in clipping and finding the coupons. But I could be wrong about that.

you are right..if you will notice in all the auctions they say the coupons are free..you are bidding on my time to collect and cut out the coupons..

this happens with alot of things..people sell their football tickets on ebay all the time around here..what you will see is "free football ticket with purchase of this post-it note.. there are ways of getting around the system..
