Another fake E-Bay Auction

TATE said:
I haven't been able to get this one cancelled yet. I know the history of this cue and it's a copycat auction from a few months ago.

Just a word of cauton - zero feedback and private bidders should be a huge red flag.

The just joined yesterday date is also a dead give away. I hope someone does not take them up on a 2nd chance offer.:( :(
I have always thought that there should be an extra fee and special registration for any auction with private feedback. Not only for this reason but alsao to curtail shill bidding in other situations.
 
Never cancelled?

I sent them 3 e-mails and even provided them with the original auction number from February of this year.

I ended up withdrawing my bid when the auction wasn't cancelled. I'll be very honest here that I didn't want e-bay to trace it to my IP address and possibly give me problems with my account.

E-Bay is wonderfully accommodating to scam artists everywhere. I did everything I could. if I were an attoney, I kid you not I would sue them until the cows came home for every person who has been burned by their negligence.

Well, they finally removed it after closing. Maybe my after close heads up to ebay combined with yours did the trick. Good job Chris
