You're right, Tim.  The man is *not* sending checks to Thomas Henry - in
fact, this is what he had to say:

I'll chip in my two cents to Ebay.

Cheerio,

Yeah, you're right. He sold one book for over twenty bucks, so I'm thinking
Tom's cut should be at least ten. I think it even says right in the listing
that these are copies. Anyway, I reported it (three listings selling Tom H
photocopies) to eBay. Hopefully, they'll take action.
