Slim to none and Slim left town No feedback, only registered last month as a ebay member, 1 day listing's, item located in China but seller in Australia. All tell me a bunch of people are going to get ripped off. I don't see ANY payment terms at all in the listing either.

And what's up with this paragraph under the last picture????

I just thought that perhaps you decided to have a little fun with the jerk from China. Someone has. Several of the auctions have been bid on by buyer named "Fraudulent-auction-beware". The buyer even has a ME page explaining that they are bidding on scam auctions and reporting them to eBay.

The really amazing thing thing though is someone actually outbid F.A.B.

LOL, That is original if nothing else. It is rather nice of someone other than ebay taking matters into their own hands. That is a very ingenious way to get the scammers. I wish I could take the credit but it's not me. Wish I had thought of it though.

ha the bidder will get naru ed before the seller probably. But good idea. Wonder just how long you can bid and mess up auctions before getting axed. I am going to have to watch these auctions and bidder to see what happens.

Auctions all gone.

Irked - you really think a scam artist is going to file for non payment?

Good point Fenix - I love the fraudulent-auction-beware bidder idea - unless they bid on my sales, that is!

Scary thing is that the seller is not NRU. Ebay probably just gave him a warning and a 5 day vacation so he can refine his scam deal.

He's NARU now.
