    I hate idiot scamsters like this!:mad: Notice the words "
    This auction is for an eBook

    (Not for an actual 4GB iPod Mini)"
    I only hope that most of the 0 feedback high bidders are scam accounts just ripping the p*** out of him/her!:rolleyes:

    I can feel a 'new bidder' coming into play (with a bid of say £99,999 - my last disposable username was "scam-do-not-bid".;)

    Seemed to do the job!!

    how do you report these people - I know ebay is bad at this kind of thing, I guess it might help if we report them - and then sell reading lessons on ebay....?! reckon that could be a money spinner!!!!

    If I hadn't got my specs on I would not have seen the small writing! (Always worn when on ebay!)

    BUT I must say I am surprised at the number of bidders ...but they are mainly newbies though, but as BFG says they canna read!

    Disgusting says it all really. How people can do it is beyond me....:mad:

    He is even charging £4.35 on some of the items for postage!! Totally misleading and unacceptable. Grrrrr:mad:
    The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing:)

    thats because you will be sent the Ebook on CD so he can prove he sent you something - making he transaction perfectly legal and preventing Paypal complaints.

    Its a tax on the stupid and gullible really. Much like the national lottery, or a Labour party subscription. Legal but a waste of your money.
