I also wrote to this person, inquiring how they came to have this radio
prior to its release. They wrote back:

I am very sorry for this misunderstanding. I went through the internet
and I think this one really is not released yet. I was mistaken by my
providers, they may mixed-up something. Thank you for reminding me
this. I shell take this item out of auction

And yet, the auction continues. I just pulled it up on ebay. I'm not
sure this person can end the auction now that there are 9 bids on the
item, can he?

Concerned eBay members can report items they think might be fraudulent by accessing
http://pages.ebay.com/help/contact_inline/index.html and using the 3 steps for contacting eBay.
1. "report a listing policy violation or prohibited (banned) item"
2. "Fraudulent listings"
3. "report a listing you think is fraudulent (you didn't bid)"

Someone doing that might indicate in their report that a reputable company like
universal-radio.com says the radio is not expected to be released until mid 2005.

I'd guess we'd find out if the auction can be removed if that happens.
