I notified Ebay about the fraudulent descriptions and have yet to hear back.
Ebay usually doesn't care.

Amazing....and yet the stupid flock to his auctions...



What would happen if a new ebay'er who just signed up, and didnt have
time yet to establish his paypal account, etc. was to bid on
fraudulent auctions with 3 minutes to go? And he bid $2000 on each
of them? He would "win" all the auctions.
Then he would disappear..........

What if 5 of his friends who post on usenet, did the same thing next
Sunday night?

An administrative headache for the fraudulent seller, huh?
Energy better spent than just posting stuff, maybe?

i.e. if there's a crook out there in the world, and he does business
with ebay who may just possibly not have a single person working in
the customer service department, and doesn't own a telephone, maybe
there ought to be a counter-revolution? Might be very entertaining.

An old saying comes to mind: "Two wrongs doesn't make a right."...
Whatever that means.

Report him to ebay. I have done it and it sometimes works.
