[Konvas] eBay

[H. W. Stone]

 The seller is LEGIT--? his account was hijacked, and things he did not have were listed.

He is in a country that PayPal does not transfer funds to, which is why the "you use paypal and send it to X and I'll send this to you" made sense-- I've done that several times with Eastern European sellers and Russian sellers, never had a problem, had not dealt with this guy-- but he had a good 100% positive feedback, all sales, no purchases.

He is changing his ID for eBay because of it, but the scam seller was working out of the UK and apparently nailed several accounts.? After a number of complaints by the dealer eBay caught it, straightened it out, PayPal is holding off to make sure it is not a double scam of some kind, but several dozen items were sold, none too cheaply.? It appears that I may have been the "low" amount.
