With new improved feedback after he sold that last Steve Irwin photo to himself ;)

Look at item 190048237071.
Seems VERY similar to item 260047034974 which ended on Friday night.

You know what to do by now. If you have anything for Halesowen College please route through me as I have a contact there (can't say more, sorry).
Can I help?

    Can't actually see what's wrong with this one as he does actually appear to have the item?

    Looks very similar? He's stolen ALL the pictures from the original listing :eek:

    Here we go again! ;)

    Of course there is the possibility that the original sale was him under another account.

    Has anyone taken this up with the police? what about HM Revenue and Customs. He must be well over his tax allowance!

    Meant to press quote not thanks, but thanks anyway! d'oh!

    1st auction is listed as a Private Seller in Birmingham, West Midlands, UK

    2nd Auction is listed as Business Seller in birmingham (sic), West Midlands, UK

    Both list the 'small un-noticeable-unless-you-twirl-the-guitar-under-the-light-from the-rising-August-moon-and-blink-rapidly-whilst-holding-a-soft-boiled-egg' (or sth similar) mark on it.

    Is commander sasha one of Mr Cooper's alter egos perchance?

    First one didn't sell though.
    They promised the earth...and delivered mud. Technically though it did meet the spec.

    Only got a reply to my last report to eBay for this seller today.....said one line only 'no action taken for shill bidding'.

    What happened to eBays' usual longwinded fobbing off email? Ive never had a one line reply to a report before....they must be getting sick of me.

    What are people reporting this one for? Potentially fraudulent? Its the only category I can see applies.
