Spotted this on ebay earlier:

https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251215426216

Seems ridiculously cheap and screams fake at me but for the price of it I've ordered one anyway. Always got paypal protection to fall back on should it be a pile of crap or just not turn up.

Thought it might be worth a punt for the price Thumbs Up

Yeah, but as I say if the listing is fake then PP buyer protection will sort us out, as I believe it did you in that thread?

all the feedback is for 50c items, later 99c

he sold 166 of these for £21.71?

£3600 less selling fee's, a fortune for some in china, withdraw money, disappear

they're all f__king thieves, paypal may return the money but when they never get it back they'll take it out you're account again

Holy fuck, interested to hear the outcome, was expecting to see in the terms and conditions something like.. you are only bidding for a picture of a GoPro HD hero 2 Laughing

But seems not.. if you get a proper one I'll give you £30 for it Wink

Thumbs Up

I bought some chinese handlebar heaters a while back, they took two months to arrive. 45 day buyer protection? Good luck with that.

I hope all you idiots relying on buyer protection to bail you out WHEN it never arrives, don't moan about high PayPal/eBay fees. Scammers list fake items to get as much money as possible, withdraw that money and leave eBay to refund all the idiots who so carelessly parted with their cash. You should get nothing back.

Its about 20 quid I'm not going to be that bothered. If it was more I would not have bothered.

If he'd sold them not as cheap he'd arouse less suspicion and would've probably made more money at it.

and that feedback is hilarious, i hope you lot leave something funny because there's no point leaving an angry message when he'll probably never bother looking unless he wants a laugh.

Yep, ebay have confirmed that it is indeed fraudulent and have suggested that I file a claim in the resolutions center.

Ah well, you win some you loose some.

I find it amusing you still think in the back of your head that there's even a tiny chance you're going to receive anything.

You paid money to an obvious scam artist.
The scam artist walked away with that money.
Leaving eBay to refund you out of their pocket.

Why would the scammer send you anything of value?
