Scammer on Ebay

This guy has listed this item many different times already. I made him an offer of $197 and he countered with an offer of $1610. We should show him that we know it is a scam and send him some low ball offers.

although the picture, title and price makes you think you are getting a generator setup, the description clearly states you are not getting generators. Technically, he isn't doing anything wrong, he is selling what is described, but it is VERY misleading and just plain wrong

Yes, very misleading and totally wrong. I am going to ask him if it is free shipping and see what the reply is.

The info doesn't add up. He has a very high rating, he as sold several of the exact item before and received a very positive rating on those sales. Therefore people are paying $1600 for an item you can buy new from a Honda dealer for under $40.

look at his feedback and see what he has sold in the past. Never one of these, thankfully

You're right - he/she has a 98.9 positive feedback rating. I'm surprised EBay hasn't kicked him out since they have a low tolerance for this stuff.

something doesn't add up. Who would be taken by this scam, and not leave negative feedback

That's my question also,although he does capitalize that the generations are not included.

His rating has been elevated by him he makes up emails and sells himself the products and then says how great he is and that is how he gets a good rating also I have watched several vendors change their E-mail or handle several time during the month those are the ones not to buy from If they don't give you a tracking number the same day you buy it then cancel the transaction and buy from somebody else you will be better off I lost on one guy because he kept me waiting for my package for over 30 days and I couldn't cancel or get my money back from e-bay because I didn't complain soon enough even though e-bay wants you to work with vendor to fix the problem I will never do that again lesson learned......I will cancel from now on if I don't get a tracking number or item within 14 days period!! and that is 14 days including weekends and holidays.
