    A mobile phone the sellers other item, when I noticed a strange revision on the mobile phone I looked to see what else they were selling.

    I would not buy the phone!

    I have reported the person to ebay, they do not seem well and it would be unfair to let them continue spending money on listing items.

    Got to feel sorry for the bloke, I have just been trying to report the listing but I can't see how to report for anything except fake goods and shill bidding so I am going to try to phone tomorrow, not just for his sake but for the other people he identifies on there, hes obviously not a well man.

    To report it, if you choose something, anything really you do get other options & space for a brief description.
    A sick person, hopefully it will be removed quickly.
    It's strange that the original listing for the phone made sense but the edited bit is really umm, not.
    Is anyone else holding for live chat to report this quickly? I'm being transfererred to a specialist team with a 36 minute wait.
    After more than an hour of waiting, I looked at the listings & the phone one had been cancelled. I went back through to live chat who said that the specialist team must have closed for the day & he's unable to remove listings.
    I wonder if it was for circumventing fees if someone is able to remove a listing, or if that also needs a specialist team.
    Got through to the specialist team, told the name of the operator & nothing else now for 10 minutes. I think my live chat person may have died.

    I don't think the person is sick I just thought it was a wind up listing that sometimes happens on ebay.
    More strange is that someone bought it for a tenner.
