His feedback tells some very strange stories.
Aparrently a lot of people have actually gotten systems from him. But then several people haven't, and he claims that he lost the systems (he has listed hundreds of them, yet manages to lose some specific ones?)
Fishy things about this seller.
- semi-illiteracy
- hundreds of Console systems listed
- repeated assertations that they are not buying information
- change of ebay name,
- droppage of his actual location from the auctions.
- 7 week wait from payment to ship (just long enough to make it hard for someone to do something about getting ripped off.
- He buys nothing but playstation 2 systems from other sellers, often at higher prices. Including from scam "Pyramid scheme" auctions (never saw them before investigating this seller, but he seems to both buy and sell in "Matrix*" or "Pyramid*" auctions.
Two guesses. First is that it is that the guy is some sort of con artist. (Obvious from the "Pyramid*" X-Box listing). Second guess is that he is quickly ruining his credit and finances trying to buy Ps2 systems on ebay and resell them at a higher price.
* A Pyramid or Matrix auction appears to be one where the seller takes the money from each auction for the item and puts it together until he has sold the same item 20 times, at which time the first person gets their item. Then upon selling twenty more, the second person from the original batch gets their item. By the time the original 20 people get their items their will be 400 people who have not recieved theirs. When the 400 get them there will be 8000 people without items, when the 8000 get theirs there will be 160,000 people waiting, then 3 million, then 60 million, then the entire 1.2 billion people on this earth who have any possible means of internet access will be waiting on an item from this seller, and that item will never appear.
