Fake Action # 1 on Ebay?

[binarysunrise]

Aw, he cancelled the $156,000 bid...

 

Do you think he'd get even more frustrated if we emailed him about his cabbage patch kids and Dell computer, asking if those are fake too? Think if we kept on him for months he'd get *really* mad??

Haha, that's a GREAT idea

Well, it was ended:

"The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing."

Maybe he finally ran spellcheck on it

 

...or maybe the error in the listing was that the seller isn't really a woman....

On the one hand, it is funny to "change your mind" on a giant bid...but on the otherhand, what other recourse do you have when the seller adds to the description stating that he's angry with everyone who has emailed him stating it was a fake. Perhaps the seller should take a class in marketing....

I feel like we actually acomplished something today. We just saved some poor soul a lot of money! Cheers all around! Or should I say beers all around! Thanks to spidersense for posting this.

She may be an illiterate loser, but she's crafty enough to never REALLY affirmatively state the book was real. Whenever asked if it was a reprint or real, she replied:

 

well if it wasnt real,why the man in the comic place offer me $5,000? and i said NO and he still beg,n beg to sell it to him.

 

 

Another common tactic from the scammers book of tricks -- never make an affirmative statement... but divert responsibility to someone else.
