Shocking Ebay Prices

[Jurassic]

ikobo_1's right, I bought a big bundle of Dreamcast games from a seller in hong kong that never showed up. The same bundle that that guys now selling...

Most of the other items also look identical, even down to the descriptions. I'm staying well away!

Hasn't occurred to either of you to perhaps drop ebay/paypal a line about this .. I'm sure if they've had to shell out compensation to a load of unhappy previous buyers, they'll be more than interested to get a lead on where they might catch up with the culprit

I had thought about it, but i can't for the life of me remember the original user name. I never left feedback so can't go in to mine to find it.

Yup, I know the guy his username was cherryfans. I brought a 'Tales of Symphonia' Gamecube set off him which arrived but was packaged in a thin piece of bubble wrap and brown paper.....all the way from Hong Kong

Naturally I wasn't too chuffed with the condition so I sold it on for around the same price I paid for it. About a week later he got a **** load of negatives from all over and was NARU'd.
As mentioned before I would definitely take the item descriptions with a massive pinch of salt, and stick to PayPal.

I sent him a question to the first item of his that came up, he replied to it on the listing!

Ouch! That was a fast one! He must have got payment very quickly off some people... I wish them all the best of luck with their claims

Either that or someone tipped eBay off as to his identity and they, in a sudden and unusual burst of attentiveness, actually checked it out and did something about it ...

[Colin]

I sent a message to ebay once oldgamingfart reminded me of the previous user name, and i'd imagine a few others did too.

What a bargain!

I like the bit in the questions section where he says it's 'impossible' to find one for £30 anywhere in the world, yet if you check the completed listings someone sold a copy as BIN for £15 a few days ago.
