shameful eBay seller

[muzikool]

I've been looking at LCDs on eBay for the past few days, and I came across a few LCDs that are being "sold" by a certain person. It turns out that what is really being sold is information, but that is not evident until the print at the bottom of the listing. I've seen information auctions before, but never so disguised as this. There are buyers bidding in the $100s on some of these auctions. I emailed a few of them to warn them. Wasn't sure what else I could do.

Here is a listing of the sellers current auctions:

Wow, did you report this to ebay? People like this just suck!

 

[Erbmaster]

I agree xsivforce...

That's awful. The gits!.
They should have their accounts locked, and need investigating by Ebay.

That is a blatant effort at trying to secure monies by deception. Sure he tells you what you get in the small print...
But why all the tech-items for "suppossed" auction? Where's the relevance.

Seems Ebay need to vet their submissions/members more closely

 

[Henyman]

thats so wrong

 

[Sazar]

I am going to report the f*cker as well..

maybe if they get multiple complaints they will do something bout it...

-edit-

reported

 

[Sazar]

I posted on a couple of other forums as well... asked them all to send ebay a fradulent seller alert... there should be some action taken I think...

Above post quoted at: SP. Spread it around.

We need to make sure this guy doesn't pull this crap any more.

 

[Brandi]

Yeah, what a jerk.

 

[blinden]

the thing is, and yes, this guy is an ass, but there is so many like him that it's not going to do a lot just to get rid of one guy, he'll probably get another name and come back again....

 

[xsivforce]

They took him down.

Complaint : Read the small print all the way at the end. Your not bidding on what you think.
Response by southern_comp_inc - Small print? It's all the same font size. Or did you just not bother to read?

Neutral : I was emailed by another ebay user that this person was scamming, please advise.
Response by southern_comp_inc - I have only been selling on here for 3 days which means they are lying.

What a lamer ..

 

[muzikool]

Awesome. Thanks to those of you who reported the seller or posted this on other forums!

 

[Evil Marge]

I just hope that one day someone cons them,bet they'd be the first to complain

 

[SPeedY_B]

Just shut eBay down.. would solve it all.

 

[muzikool]

People do need to be more careful, though. It's easy to get wrapped up in bidding and not realize it's still your money, and you need to be careful with it.

 

[Evil Marge]

Most I spent on ebay was £2.00 for a network card for me son

 

[muzikool]

Good price!

 

[SPeedY_B]

They're only £3 new

 

[Evil Marge]

Well 2 in less than 3 last time I looked
