another ebay buyer beware...and a pet peeve

[Leon]

I reported this to ebay and of course they are letting it run. I hate it when it's my card that gets copied and sold as "can not vouch for it"......
duh, they can't. It's in my safe deposit box.....note the back wrinkle for absolute id.....

I doubt anyone would bid on this but just in case

I would venture to guess that the seller used Leon's picture to print-out a fake. That would explain the similiar mark on the back side.

Lovely Day...

Didn't the same seller also have a T5 Wagner up on e-bay that was pulled early? I remembered seeing that and seeing the Ruth and thinking something didn't seem right.

That would be eBay at it's best - letting a high volume seller who they have pulled scam listings from stick around to do the same thing again.

I've sent a message to the seller that might have him reconsidering his auction. Good eye, Leon.

Not to hijack the thread; But this just got me wondering:

Is there any way to block a seller on ebay? Like, block a seller so that you don't ever see his items when you search? That would be a very useful tool, to help in not getting ripped off. Is it possible for people to X out items from known unscrupulous sellers?....
