    I'm not surprised all this has turned sour. Yes Paul's story is very sad, but he's not the only person in history to run a foul on ebay and to have suffered badly.

    Not to say Paul is definitely a scammer but con-artists have gone through worse for less money.

    A good point well made - I wish that the other fools that have fallen for a scam and given money to a complete stranger would grow up and get a bit of perspective.

    Obviously their lives are so empty and worthless that they feel like part of a clan talking in codes and giving money to complete strangers - good on them.

    One word - SAD!!!! :T

    Is this not the same troll who got the thread closed before?

    As previously stated, people can make up their own opinion, and as you've already made yours very clear, there is no need to continually insult people.

    I'm 99.999% sure it wasn't a scam, but if it was, then he can keep my fiver, as it was a damn good effort!!
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    :rotfl:Good one Pinkshoes I agree, if it had been a scam which I do not believe for a single moment, then he earned every single penny.

    Oh good, he's back.
    I'd suggest putting this person on ignore so you don't have to read their drivel.
    Thats what i'm doing anyway, right now.

    I didn't even realise you could 'ignore people'. Thanks for the heads up on this. Have taken your advice.

    Click on his user name, at the side of his post. Then click to view public profile. You then have an option to add them to your ignore list. Click on this and then confirm.

    They've been on my IL for a very long time for posting inane and puerile bilge. I assume they still haven't grown up/been educated/been sectioned
