[Ads-l] Boxlessness (literal)

[Joel Berson]

>From an email list, Oct. 12, writing about buying from eBay:


My WordPerfect did not come in a box. I suspect because of that, it was bootleg or pirated. ...


I do not know why it was box less. It was not shipped to me from overseas.  ...


I have always wondered about the boxlessness of it.

Some have "thinking, acting, etc. outside the box/system."
