I have a TV auction up and recieved an e-mail from another eBay user telling me that the model designation I used for the TV was not correct and that he would be contacting eBay to have it removed.
I thought he must be selling something similar to want to kill mine but NO he has nothing like it.
He does however have an auction up for the right to pick his new name for a legal name change so I bid on that because it lets me pull his contact info since I am involved in an active auction with him. I did not make reserve but if he continues to interfere with my auction I may bid high enough to name him a--h----.
I have posted an addition to the auction showing his e-mail and a shot of the front of the TV showing the model name that he says it can't be. I suppose eBay will contact me and demand I remove his e-mail address.
It would have been nice if he had ASKED something about the item but at 18 he knows too much to ask - he just informs me he is going to fix my wagon.

He has e-mailed and told me that the contact info is false and that is his grandfather who has a credit card and allows him to use it so he can sell.
Was I ever that stupid at 18? He threatens to interfer in my auction and then tells me he has false contact info so I could report him. Well I am too lazy to tell eBay and play tit for tat.
Oh - he cancelled my bid to change his name. Didn't say why....

Just forward the email to ebay and be done with it.
