Our Radio Friend in Kentucky
 
Now he is a Gonset Collector with over 400 pieces of Gonset Equipment

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...72525 99&rd=1

Does he have a call? Is he really even a ham??

Why are all the high bidders now hidden on his auctions?

Investigate his feedback.
Contact some of the folks who've dealt with him.
That should give an idea.

So he can bid against his own stuff (using Gotthaveit1995).

Perhaps e-Bay has something to say about this......

"...Shill bidding is the deliberate use of secondary
registrations, aliases, family members, friends,
or associates to artificially drive up the bid
price of an item. (This is also known as "bid padding.")
Shill bidding is strictly forbidden on eBay.
eBay members found shill bidding may receive
warnings or indefinite suspensions of their accounts."

He's from jolly old England and was set up as Multicom2000......do a google
search for multicom2000 and you can find postings from people that got
ripped off in the old country.

I think he's an illegal alien in the States.

So you can't tell when he shills up his own bids under another id and so
no one can email bidders and clue them in about his fluffed up
descriptions of items he has "had in his collection for years" even
though he only purchased them recently on ebay under his other id.

His "collection" should be translated "stuff I got on eBay recently and
think I can make a quick buck from."

His stories about the history of anything he sells seem to me to be
fabricated. He claimed to me several years ago when he won an auction
of mine on eBay and a few weeks later listed the same item saying it had
belonged to his father and was in his family for years, was that he was
from the UK and had a radio store there. He said he also had a Texas US
call and spent a lot of his time in the US. When I challenged him on
his description of the item that he was auctioning that he had just got
from me was that he was just trying to make it more interesting.

Probably also fabrications about his call sign and perhaps his UK
connection though with a name "Martyn" it's not a typical stateside
spelling.

Deal with him with caution.
