  • Worrying, as Ebay are now advertising on TV, this can only mean they have gone ' Money-Mad and to hell with ethics'.

  • Just a question to all with regards to my original post ...

    I received an email form EBAY informing me this guy had been suspended and not to deal with him .... SO FAIR ENOUGH fees returned ,item relisted ..ect !
    HOWEVER the next day a cheque from the buyer turned up dated,signed,correct amount in fact the whole thing LOOKS fine !

    This is where I cannot work out the scam he is obviously trying to pull ...4 weeks have elapsed since the cheque arrived with not a word from him asking WHY I have not tried to cash his payment or asking WHEN he can expect to recieve his goods ..... If anyone can shed any light would be much appreciated !
