    I had put the answer in post 5, yes pos feedback must be left by all 250 people who have "bought" the £2, before he refunds the money. HTH

    Sorry it wasn't that clear, neither was it in the listing. I was just wondering what the outcome was from those that had done it?
    Back on the trains again!

    Well I tried it this morning- waited a couple of hours - no £2.

    I then decided to risk leaving feedback, though that's against my principles without the 'product', but, so far, still no £2.

    But I'm assuming, judging from other's experiences, that it will come good...

    Was suspicious as well, but thught it was no worse than buying a scratch card. Paid my quid yesterday evening, DIDN'T leave any feedback and the £2 was paid into my Paypal account this mirning. I then left the postitive feedback.

    Again,s till not sure about eBay rules about this - not got time to look but what set my mind at rest was when I did the simple sums. Recieve £250, pay out £500 - net cost to seller £250 (plus a bit for Paypal fees). According to his story, if he gets the required feedback in time, he gets a family trip to Centerparcs for free - real cost to him being the £250 he "lost" on eBay. No way you get a family trip to Centerparcs for £250!

    Hope he gets away with it :)

    Oh come on. It seems as though the fella is genuine. He clearly states no multiple attempts and it seems kind of fair to respect that to be honest!
