Damn Ebay scammers...

[Pared]

...guess the 360 wasn't enough.

Now, seems like this seller, tag469, is artificially inflating prices on these stupid PSP Value packs.

Just take a look at the featured items... all PSP's from the same seller, all being bid on well over $250 by new users, alot of them having multiple bids.

Coincidence? Yeah, RIGHT.

Pisses me off.. how do you report this bastard?

On a side note, is the PSP difficult to find? I can find them easily here in NYC now, while it was difficult to find for retail price ($250) during the system's launch...

Re: Damn Ebay scammers...

I can't believe people are paying $50 over the price of the PSP.

You should do a little research before you bash people. If you look at all the "0" feedback bidders bidding history, most are bidding on the same thing from OTHER sellers. Now if it's a user bidding only on a specific seller, you might have a case for shilling. There are tons of new users this time of year, and not everything is a "scam."

...YOU post. Take your own advice.

The seller had the same new users bidding on not only multiple PSP's WELL over the price of any other auctions, but also on his MANY Xbox 360's for sale.

FYI, all the auctions I reported with bids by these same new users were pulled.

Again, heed your own advice next time.

Re: Damn Ebay scammers...

This is crazy, this person paid $405.00

Are they living in a cave or something where they can't access a store?

I went by the seller and the search you had in your original post. There was nothing wrong with any auctions by him.

Re: Damn Ebay scammers...

And you just reported the auctions, and they've been pulled already? I seriously doubt that. What were the item numbers?

Amazingly enough I didn't keep a scrapbook of this information.

But they were pulled... info. was saved in my browsers cache. The back button and tabbed browsing is a wonderful thing!
