I heard of a case a couple of years ago where a guy (in New Orleans, I 
think) who bought Macintoshes, fixed them up, and resold them on eBay, 
got a criminal action filed against a buyer in the Chicago area who 
didn't pay up or some such. I doubt that I still have the link, but I 
imagine a search engine would lead you to it.
