    Fricken ebay messers

    i bought this item on buy it now and paid straight away pia pay-pal. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=320385013496
    3 days later i get an email saying..."sorry i no longer have the item any more my shed got broken in to and all my stuff was stolen".
    Wtf i can understand perhaps mountain bikes lawn mowers and power tools etc getting nicked from a shed,
    but a rocker cover worth what kinda smack head would pinch that!
    im angery as i aready bought the washers ready for it and was quite looking foward to a bit of bling under the bonnet! and i dont belive his story for one moment.

    Re: Fricken ebay messers

    Ok Check this out this rocker cover has appeard on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/renault-5-gt-t...ayphotohosting
    i find it slightly suspecious that there both in southampton for 1, and even more susspecious that if you save the pics to ur desktop and flick from one pic to the other ever single stone is in the exact same position, and the corner of the oil cap sticker is torn in the exact same place!
    i think its time to get ebay to investigate this and check the ip address of the accounts. why did he put on for £30 buy out and take my cash for 3 days gets me angery
    again heres the 1st link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=320385013496
    what u think guys coencedence?

    lol how obvious is that the almost exact same user name! Just report him no doubt he has been shail bidding as well so with any luck he'll get a ban.

    I have bought of this seller before and received the goods (water pump)!
    Although he complained when i didn't pay within the space of 2 days, then then gave me the story that the shop had flooded due a water pipe bursting and i will have to wait for the goods took 2 weeks to receive it with daily emails.

    i smell a paypal scam...
    i put my laptop up for sale bbuy it out price, this guy bought straight out and asked to send it same day, i say yes then i get this message....
    Hello
    I wish to inform you that i want the item posted to my daughter in Africa since i bought the item purposely for her as a birthday present.I would have ask you to post it to my eBay address in United States (US) but for my tight schedule at work i wont be able to post the item to her myself so that i why i want you to do this for me.For this reason i will be adding the sum of GBP 150.00 for the postage and packaging to Africa via Parcel Force World-wide and i hope that this will be enough.I will like you to post the item as soon as possible tomorrow upon the receipt of payment confirmation from PayPal.
    I am sorry for any inconvenience that this might caused you.

    this clown got a friend to up my bid to the maximum, then they sold to his friend. within hours i was offerd a second chance offer so he could squeeze every penny from me. pisses me off that people are so desperate for a tenner they will go to this much effort to rip you off. i told him to stick them as i would have won them for 99p if he didnt up my bids.

    If he accepted your offer, it must mean he's regularly on e-bay, so why doesn't he reply to mails?
