i can't understand why ebay don't ban him. he has broke loads of their rules and they still won't do anything. he must have to sell the picasso to get money to pay for the 4 grand car he's been bidding on0

Note the wording below, he dosn't say he's selling a photograph signed by Steve Irwin or that this is the picture he took (if he even went)
"Obtained Autograph myself and took picture myself whilst my visit to australia",
I do wish he would learn to use capital letters properly though.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0 -
The Picasso has been removed again, apparently by Ebay. But he's still not NARU'd - unbelievable! :mad:I only exist in my own mind - if you can see, hear or read me, you are a product of my imagination.0

Go to 'Advanced search' (under the normal top right search box), menu on top left select 'Items by Bidder', enter their ID.............bob's your uncle!

Go to the advanced search feature:
http://search.ebay.co.uk/ws/search/AdvSearch?sofindtype=1&ssPageName=h:h:advsearch:Uk
Then use the find items by bidder link down the left hand side and enter his ID and search.0 -
Well, I reported both his auctions last night for fee avoidance, in the absence of anything more specific to report. Another Steve Irwin autograph for sale at the moment......:rolleyes:If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0

I think that you missed the point, jakemuk - the photo is a generic one, but he's claimimg that he took it. A search of completed listings on Ebay would turn up the self same picture.
Ever heard of irony?
