    Just report him to ebay and let them deal with it.

    Sadly there is very little we can do on this board, but I am sure ebay will do something.

    tell me you didn't hand over £85 to a scammer?
    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    If you look at his completed sales he has sold nearly £700 worth over the last 2 days. I have contacted some of the buyers bit as they are BINs they have probably already paid.

    Btw is it only me or spelling like "100£" seems a bit weird?

    Hi, Yes, I agree no one I know would place the '£' after the figure. It looks very fishy indeed.

    To be fair, the middle line of the description says (in BIG letters) DO NOT BUY !

    Can't believe anyone would throw money at it.
