This guy has only positive comments - so he is not a fraud,
but lot of his listings related to walkmans, MD and such are not in his posession.
This guy crawls through polish auction's and ads' services and searches for a valuable items.
He does not buy these items, but lists them on ebay for a short term or BIN as his own's, hoping to be able to buy it from the original owner after someone buys it from him on ebay.
He steals photos - obviously, thats how I found out, and he claims all items are from his own collection, which is not true - so he can not tell you the true condition of the item.
as an example - his listing on ebay:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/Beautif...ection-/281114854505and the same listing on polish gumtree (by someone else)
http://www.gumtree.pl/cp-sprze...ony-mz-r91-477444082He was trying to sell lately DC2, EX900, and other units, doubling or tripling the price.
Also note the outrageous shipping price.
A bit risky, what if he fails to buy the original item? How do you know he's doing this and is not actually the same guy? Just seems quite a gamble for him not to mention the tiny sums involved. Certainly a new angle.
Strange that he has positive comments for such a risky venture. He's almost acting as a faux broker.
Thanks for the heads up Pawel
An update to my post.
poland25ziomek, uniquestar7, pablomarco10 and donquixote2
is the same person.
All "users" have the same location, same style of description
and you can find the very same carpet as a background
for auction photos (unless it is a "stolen" auction).
This guy is using several accounts to raise the bid.
I've carefully checked the comments, dates and past auctions,
so I'm pretty sure of it.
Someone just a moment ago have bought a nice Sony TPS-L2
www.ebay.de/itm/Beautiful-WALK...ection-/261228905668the other bidder was the seller himself (under donquixote2 name)
and he has pulled up a nice price.... well done.
I've reported his two accounts to ebay for "stolen" auctions,
so I'll see what ebay will do about that.
But for now - just be aware.
Thanks Pawel...this shill bidding pi$$es me off
Keep up the investigative work!
