Hate? Why?

Sorry Shena - maybe "hate" is a bit strong, but don't you think that Gretsch white falcon looks suspicioulsy like a black les paul standard

Not only is he a complete scammer, but he's so lazy and bad at it that it hurts my brain!

He regularly posts 60s Rickenbackers using pictures he has blatently stolen and puts them on at BIN prices of like a tenth of what they should be worth.

Nothing but a stupid criminal

and eBay does nothing about it. He has a whole ring of false IDs and shill friends to give him a feedback circle.

Anyone who goes for this deal is in for a bad shock.

I suspect this person speaks ZERO English, and has stolen every bit of his spiel from other ads, others' feedback wording, etc.

But you want dollar? That's universal and needs neither translation nor language skills.

Originally I mistyped the word as "dorrar". Are my fingers xenophobic, I wonder?

Maybe we should be thankful that he's so bad at it.

BUT GOD IT ANNOYS ME!!

Yep... looks suspicious... way too good for this price... wonder if he had sold ANYTHING... and i'm especially interested what his customer think about him, if there were any 8-)
Oh wait... isn't it the same guy who was tryin' to sell a pink RIC for $300?! 8-)

After its smashing success in the US of A, I wondered (still do) how eBay would work out in Asia. It is hard for me to see how it will work in countries like China, Indonesia and Malaysia, where 85-90% of software used is pirated, and pirated TV/movie/music VCDs/DVDs hit the night markets before the originals hit the stores.

Online auction sites like eBay rely a lot on the trust between the two parties, although 3rd parties like PayPal can assist. I will probably only utilise eBay-Malaysia to sell stuff, but never trust to buy through it unless I visit the seller personally to take possession at the same time as payment.
