ebay seller "Bee Kind Reimagined" aka "Buildone Supplies" in Sun Valley, CA
 
Please DO NOT bid in any of this seller's auctions.

They've listed cards ranging from an E-220 Babe Ruth, T204 Ramly Eddie Plank, multiple '52 Topps Mantles, multiple Michael Jordan RCs, Pokemon, historical autographs, Star Wars, modern Bsktbl/Football.....

Their photos are all over the place.....indoors; outdoors; scanner; camera; some with the card held in the photo taker's hand; some straight-on; some at an angle.....

Also, they're hijacking photos from 4 Sharp Corners and Probstein, and other sellers.

Buyer beware!

Lol ebay may wish to reconsider.

Can anyone offer a quick refresher for those of us who are unfamiliar with whatever (it's obviously bad) is going on here??

Website is parked. It's probably an old bot script that needs updating.

The website is/was registered to a hotel in Seattle and the phone number linked is a VOIP linked number.

So yeah, scam.

My guess is it's a legit seller who's had his account hacked. The hacker is trying to re-direct buyers elsewhere.

Also operating as BeeKindBotanicals with many fraudulent listings.

A lot of people bidding on that stuff .
As mentioned above Certainly a hijacked account , looking at the sellers feedback it appears they usually deal with nothing but seeds and gardening stuff

I'm always unsure of these listings, where the description is to contact them (off ebay?) for the buy it now. How does ebay allow this??

If I understand correctly, eBay doesn't "allow" it. The scammer is hoping they'll get a few people to contact them outside eBay. Then, they'll attempt their scam. When that happens, the scammer likely won't care if eBay takes notice. They've lured their mark away from eBay and they'll request payment that doesn't flow through the eBay platform.

This is what’s happening and it’s been going on for years.

Hackers steal photos from sold eBay listings. It happens a lot.

Yep the seller that got hijacked Is actually located in the UK .
The Scammer has a Computer listing up to $388,000 now

I would guess an Apple 1 would be worth something, but 400k, probably not.
Ebay needs to use people and not robots to answer questions and look at problems.

I like that the bidding is up to $400k while the buy it now price is $9k.

Amen to that.

SyrNy1960 05-19-2024 01:19 PM

eBay finally booted them off.

Depending on what the condition is and what stuff might come with it, 400K would be high but not insane for an apple 1.

Here it is again:rolleyes:
This time some small dealer in the Netherlands is hijacked ,
