Clark has had a love/hate relationship with eBay over the years. On the one hand, he has gotten a ton of deals on small electronics accessories. But he also believes eBay should shoulder more responsibility for counterfeit goods sold on their site.

Retailers like Target and Wal-Mart have long had to deal with criminals stealing their goods and then using eBay as a modern electronic fencing operation. Some stats suggest 80% of thieves unload stolen merchandise in this way.

This thought has really been nagging at Clark -- is he part of the problem? Have some of the "steals" he's gotten been just that?

Congress is now considering the E-fencing Enforcement Act of 2008, which is backed by…you guessed it…Target and Wal-Mart. The bill would make it a felony to sell stolen items online. It would also charge eBay with a clear responsibility under the law to police its website for stolen merchandise. Therein lays the sticking point that has eBay up in arms. We'll have to wait and see what happens…
