At least on this scam they are advising that one should not bid...!

Ever notice how these Chinese auctions always have a feedback score of 12? Then you look into the feedback and every one of the "purchasers" giving feedback has 12, too.

This is obviously a rather rigid organization...

And the 'purchasers' are mostly 'no longer registered users.'

I didn't realise the Parcelfarce (sic) the UK based parcel delivery company had a depot in China too!
