    It's unfortunate that a very high proportion of the buyers are inexperienced eBay users with feedback >10 and also a very high number of brand new users. (you can only see the last 100 buyers) People are actually registering an eBay account just to buy this product, so their whole experience of eBay will be tainted when they get the usual "bids cancelled" email from eBay.

    Yes, they have copied that other sellers advert with their links and funnily enough that sellers same advert is £54.75.

    The other seller has feedback over 1.3 million! no wonder their products were picked as a 'template'

    Yup, my payment was unclaimed anyway, just got it refunded back. Have been looking elsewhere anyway.

    I am wondering if Abu Qatada was behind this as he was raided yesterday, he was warned to stay off the web!
