..........This is legal.

I ran across a pattern on ebay that someone was selling for around $14....someone had actually bid on it too. I have the same pattern that was "free" when I did a google search. I wanted to email the seller but wasn't sure what type of trouble I could have started since I didn't know details. All comments are posted online on ebay.

..........You can definitely write to ebay and they will figure it out.

e-patterns.com also sells patterns that are located in magazines and books. I bought the book on 101 potholders mainly for the variety of blocks. e-patterns does state it's from that book but why would anyone pay $5 for a few patterns when they can buy 101 patterns for $15???

..........Epatterns.com has business arrangement with those designers. And, people might buy a single pattern for 5.00 where they do not want the book for 15.00.
