About three weeks ago a user named shezban was selling lots of dvds on ebay at fairly decent prices. He also had a web site www.dvd.8m.net that made him look like a wholesaler of some sort. I only bought one dvd from him because I was skeptical and turns out I was right. Over three weeks and nothing received and of course now he is no longer a registered user. About a week and a half ago I received an email from another user who was also suspecting a scam. According to him this user sold over a thousand dvds over one weekend and scammed thousands of dollars. Anyway, I was just curious if anyone had heard anything about this or if maybe if you were one of the many victims. The seller uses a couple of emails and one gives nothing but automated responces. On the other email he gives excuses that basically involve blamming paypal. Just thought I would send a warning and a wonder... I know Im not the only one.

People from the U.S. were bidding on DVD's from Greece ( seller had feedback of "4" ) that they could pick up for a few $$'s more at the "Best Buy" down the street?!? Oh well, live and learn.
