Found another guy auctioning off the 82 page Polaris parts manual, on diskette, taken off the Polaris web site free of course. He even states that it is in PDF format, and selling it on a 3.5" diskette. Wasn't there a post about this awhile back?

There sure was another post, I think that it mentioned "putting this guy's soft parts in a vice"

Just downloaded the manual courtesy of Polaris. Didn't even have to bid on ebay to get that 82 page free manual. Thank You Polaris.

SWAC1, I suggest you notify both E-bay and Polaris management about this unethical, possibly illegal practice.

As a minimum, I'll bet the seller of Polaris manual content is violating copyright laws. He should be taught a lesson for theft of Polaris' intellectual property (manual content) and for ripping off the people by selling products available to them free.

SWAC1,

The last time this happened one enterprising poster looked at the city and state on E-Bay and scanned the posts here to determine who the poster was. Give it a try.

Just when I thought [red]ATVing[/red] had turned over a new leaf, he starts pawning the parts manuals again on Ebay!! What are you going to do next, start selling government cheese to old people? I'm amazed by the ethics (or lack of ethics) of some people!!!
