Then you need to report those sellers to eBay (and PayPal if they're using
it). It is a violation of eBay's T&C and AUP to sell OEM software without
the original hardware - especially when all they're selling are expensive
coasters.
You can think of the HP recovery disc as a key designed only to unlock the
hidden partition (HP uses a hidden partition to store its OS and application
files) on the system it was sold with. There is *NO* software on an HP
recovery disc - it's merely a key to unlock the hidden partition which
contains the necessary files to restore the system to factory state.
What those sellers are doing is illegal (it's fraud).
