Is this a thing ebay are doing nationally? Or a local service someone else is hosting?

http://swindonebay.com/

BTW if you click on the link at the bottom of the page....that says Vcars you might recognise one of the line up

Errmm yep  

Tho that was before it had an arguement with a shinbreaker on that side

Looks like a "scraper" type site to me. Very clever idea and could earn someone wads in advertising revenue.

But morally and probably legally wrong.

WHOIS for swindonebay.com

See if they have any listings for chauffer training...

"Scraper" sites are websites that "scrape" data off other sites and present it as their own. E.g.
BBC News - Ryanair blocks 'illegal' bookings

Swindon ebay is interacting with proper ebay by pretending to be a regular user IMO. And scrapng local sites to add authenticity.

Very clever but I don't think it's right.

It is a poor site - text off the screen to the left - not readable at all
