Apart from the rediculously cheap price and the fact that the seller says dont contact him through ebay it seem reasonable. The seller has good feedback etc, but when you go to click on the feedback or check his other items you will find you cant - thats cause its an image placed over the top of the real sellers details , if you hit F11 to maximise explorer you can just about see the real info hidden behind the image. Something else to watch out for anyway

Scummy scummy farkers :D

I'd be wary of this one too cos the 'feedback' etc text is a different colour of blue, not the Ebay standard...

What a twat!!

More to the point....how did he manage to put that image over the top of the normal feedback scores! That's quite worrying, i spotted it easily, but anyone with less eBay knowledge could be fooled easily!

I suspect thats not even him. I suspect that is a stolen eBay ID. That guy has done nothing but buy stuff from folk since he registered. He's never sold. Why would someone new to selling on eBay make his first sale a scam? Doesn't make sense.:question::disapprove::question:
