Bill Shick Ebay Scam.

I purchased this Schick cue using EBAY "BUY IT NOW" only because the seller said pickup was OK. The seller refused to let me pick the cue up and relisted it instead. I bought it again (so no one else would) and again he refused to let me pick it up even though his auction again said pickup was OK. This appears to be a SCAM. I'm not out any money but the person that buys this cue and sends money via paypal will probably be without his money for a long time while paypal sorts it out. I feel sure the guy will try to relist it. That's why I love AZB

I don't know if it is a scam or not, but I would not personally spend $2200 or anything over a few dollars to anyone with under say 50 or 100 feedback and for sure not anyone with -1 feedback.

Even with today's recourse of getting back money from paypal, or the credit card companies, $2200 is a lot of money to be out of for any length of time.


Just my .02
 
contact E-Bay and tell them what is going on. Shipping is free so there is n o reason for a buyer not to pick it up. Somethings wrong with this deal.
 
and those horrible quality pictures look like they were taken in a gypsy whorehouse.

yeah, i'd say something's awry. :eek:

Feedback is -1. Report him to Ebay. They don't take kindly to auctions won and then re-listed for any reason.
Though there are no pics in the first link, it looks like the same description in two different auctions. Even if it was legit the cues wouldn't be exactly the same.

Wait a minute... You bought it once, the guy scams ya,,,,,,,,, so you buy it again !!@#$%^wwwwwhhhhhooooooooooooooya:confused:
 
Lot of Schicks running around that part of Louisiana, might be legit...see if he'll go for escrow!
 
shick scam

The problem I have with this guy is that I offered to drive 550 miles and hand him his asking price for the cue in cash and he would not accept that. I have offered again to do that and he thinks I should just send the money and wait for the cue. If you think this guy is legit then by all means buy the cue and send him the money and please let me know how that works out for you. I just wanted to make AZ folks aware of this. I have over 550 ebay feedbacks with zero negatives and I have dealt with alot of you folks on ebay. I have also been hosed a few times and it's a real pain when it happens
