Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

A court would likely dismiss John's action because the listing for prescription drugs is based on an illegal contract. An illegal contract is not enforceable. John would also have trouble showing mutual agreement with pharmguy since the listing was removed before the auction closed.
