    Well it shows you can sell anything on ebay.

    He's trying it on like car clamping & other scams with ridiculous charges.
    Some people probably pay up as well.

    and his final reply

    AFTER 24 HOURS ? THANKYOU FOR YOUR COMMUNICATION

    Even that reply he sent is a lie...there's a guy who got the charge added after 12 hours....

  • Hmm. This all sounds rather familiar.

    Virtual-Warehouse or possibly with an underscore not hyphen.

    They were into all this ott postage & crap being sold. With unpleasant TOS.

    Aquilae Ltd I think was the operation behind that - anyway Ltds come & go it seems.

    I'd be tempted to buy something from him and add in the note to seller.

    The thread on ebay forums is still getting interesting - I didn't know you could get feedback completely removed (as some posters on that thread are alleging has happened)

    Yes - a negative feeback was removed from the seller's account.

    Last night the latest feedback comment on his account was negative, and now it has been removed.

    I assume he complained to eBay that e.g. the buyer's contact details are fake and then all feedback gets pulled? Can this happen?

    And i don't mean removed as in mutal agreement, I mean as in eBay acutally removed all evidence of it.

    I guess the seller has a clever solicitor on hand.
