IMHO, let them play their games. If that's why they're hiding their location, they wouldn't let a buyer pick something up locally anyhow - so, when it comes to buying electronics, I wouldn't buy from them. There are still enough sellers who give their locations to make eBay worth trying as a possible source of an inexpensive MacBook.
