Post by: motniceguy on June 22, 2007, 01:09:30 AM
Is it illegal to scan the owner's manual and sell it online?

Is there copyright info in the manual?  If yes, then this is illegal

What an interesting way to introduce yourself to a forum.  :dunno_white:

Not only is it illegal to scan it and sell it, it's illegal to scan it and give it away. It's just illegal. Any such threads posted on GSTwin are immediately removed, because we don't condone copyright infringement or illegal activities. Those who knowingly and purposefully post such materials are warned/banned.
