Is it legal to use an entire wiki page for your product description?

Yes, I think it is.  There are automated bookmakers out there too that take all the wiki info on a particular subject (following links etc) and autogenerate books to sell.

It's against Ebay rules, though, as it's Keyword Spamming.

What does the seller mean by "Thats right I have the first eddition Dungeons and Dragons game with the baby blue dice.  Thiswas the first game to come out and they had the up-roar over the baby blue dice so they changed the color to a more manley dice color."?
