I just sent a report in to e-bay.Hopefully they shut the scumbag down.Again.

I don't get it,what's he doing that is wrong?

[Horney Toad]

Well he is running a scam. Looking at the sellers other items, he has 18,300 items on auction right now in different categories. Many are expensive items listed for cheap prices. Asks for you to contact him before bidding. This is where he gets some personal information from you and either steals money or your identity.

He doesnt own the bow.  he's trying to sell something that a fellow Tradganger recently bought.  He's using images from the old auction to develop his own auction.  He throws out a great price and when you send him money he says Thank You and you never get a bow.  I doubt he'd even have the decency to leave Positive Feedback
