If they want to get picky just anyone that sells on ebay has a "conflict of interest" because Dell tries to sell a lot more than just computers. How would they find out your seller information and know that you were a Dell employee? You're not the first person they have hunted down, they're trying to reduce their liability by getting rid of old-timers so they can get higher salaries and stock options off of the books. What a nice way for them to say thanks for your 15 years of hard work. Dell cares nothing about their employees, customers, or vendors. They are just out to make money for the top dogs!

I know a lot of ppl who work also for public companies, but if we're talking about this stuff,
no one beats Dell.
They're the worst.

Dell shouldn't be allowed to see what you do in your private life- you OWNED THAT SHIT. Who cares if you re-sell it? It is not like you are evil for being creative with your business opportunities in the position you were in. You didn't become a cartel or something.

What a bitchy place to work- I am glad they did us both a favor and fired me.
