If so, perhaps you could pass this on to the legal department at CBS?

Um, yeah. That's just *slightly* illegal. While he's at it, why doesn't he throw in a programmed DirecTV access card? :)

The TPIR staff is more concerned with props being sold on ebay. Especially employees taking them and selling them for their own benefit.

Off the top of my head I can think of 1 Blank Check, 1 Barker Dollar & 1 Professor Price statue. Roger was wondering who would buy the statue it and how much it went for. (IIRC, starting bid was $2000)

Maybe it's me, but I don't really see a big deal with this. TPIR episodes have popped up on ebay several times over the years. I know it's not right, but still.

Um, do the words "FLAGRANT COPYRIGHT VIOLATION" mean anything to you? Jeez, while he's at it he could throw in some pirated Microsoft software along with that DirecTV access card.

Who wants to call Syd Vinnedge?

BTW, he's also selling some of the game show pilots that have been traded around over the years.  Nothing rare, and they're almosty certainly things he's picked up in trades with others.
