I had a quick look and couldn't find a reference to it on BC.

acidbass Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Some of them are for the string mutes, aren't they? Someone has definitely added some extra ones too over the years though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirkThrust Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Interesting that the winning bidder's user name is a similar form to the the seller's and also has zero feedback. Could be that they are the same person. Either that or some mug has just blown £900 on a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good tip for newbie eBayers who are wary of a similar situation, is to watch out for 0 rated new sellers who have similar user names as those just used in this attempted scam. You tend to find that they have very little imagination and invariably use a similar ID each time. Not fool-proof but you'd be surprised!
