Default 1979 Service manual on CD

After getting burned on EBay a couple times I figured I would try it one more time. Listed was a Service manual on CD for .99 cents. I bid on it and won. I thought oh well for .99 cents it can afford to get ripped off. The shipping was $5.95 to send it in the mail. Well the disc arrived in a folded peice of paper all taped up. Now I'm thin you got ripped off. I put it in my computer expecting it to crash my machine as a nasty virus was probably installed on it. The computer hummed as it read the disk and up pops the 1979 service manual converted to Adobe document format. Each chapter was section off as book marks and easy to use. So for .99 cents plus shipping I got exactly what I was looking for.

If your looking for a service manual, instead of a Haynes or Chiltons here is a link to the guys Ebay site, hope you find what your looking for.

So you're selling manuals on CD? Is that legal?

And yes it is legal to sell reprints, or the manuals on CD. All the seller needs to do is get the rights from the maker. Unfortunately he doesn't have one for my '71 Camaro.
