    Anyone participated in a class-action?

    I've gotten class-action notices before, but never participated. I know typically the lawyers make bank and the aggrieved parties get little to nothing, but yesterday I got a notice about the CenturyLink merger litigation. Since I bought their stock when it was low - right after the tech bubble burst when they were still Quest - I can join the class-action. Since the suit is for $12B, I thought I might.

    "you may obtain reimbursement of your reasonable and actual out-of-pocket disbursements that would not have been made but for this request by submitting an itemized statement"

    Not sure what they're asking. Shares bought, or am I to speculate some hypothetical value that was never realized as a result?

      I did once. It was from Amazon in a settlement with a book publisher. I had purchased one of the books by this publisher. I think I ended up getting about $10. Another friend was in the same suit and ended up getting about $40 because he had purchased more books than me.

                          I have a few times. Usually get about $10. Not really even worth it.

                                          Yeah. The entire class all made monkey noises when the teacher, Mr Wakeling walked in.

                                          He was very hairy and did indeed look like a monkey. The entire class got detention but I just went home instead after school, as my Mum would have been cross had I come home late.

                                              Many years ago my wife gave to Sotheby's inherited 4 carat yellow diamond ring to sell at auction. Expecting to yield over 50 K she got barely 10 K. Years later a notice came about class action against Sotheby's. She joined, Sotheby's lost and she got about 150 bucks after " expenses", so nothing to loose but rarely anything real to be gained.
