yes i'm aware of that, but let's keep things semi-real...the prices these shares are being offered at wont be achieved any time soon, if ever. If I cant place an order with comsec that's more than 50% away from the current price, why should someone else be able to place orders at ANY PRICE they dream up ? As for short selling VIL, you cant get much shorter than 1.5c, why dont the mythical "they" just stick to shorting Telstra, there's a better earn there for them.
