Another EBay question - SV650.org

13-03-07, 02:10 PM

take a look at this seller (there are many on ebay)
http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayIS...d=290091174985

he sells a lot of 0.01 items with free delivery. now i am struggling to see how he can even get his listing fee back never mind making any money.

last week, i saw an item that i was interested, when i started to check seller's feedback (around 30 or so) all of them are his purchase of 0.01p items. natually i didn't go for it. Is that part of a bigger scam i am not aware of?

Looks like pyramid scheme or something like it, get rich quick for the gullible I think....... might give it a go !

I think that he might be selling positive feedback to other scammers.

it all about getting good feedback quickly

and presumably Ebay does nothing about it

but he won't be getting his listing fee back, so he is making a loss. is that right?

I'm going to take a big guess and say pretty soon he'll be selling something very expensive which will recoup his money.

I heard you can buy positive feedback history but I don't know anything about it.Maybe this is how it is done.

Only one way to find out really - anyone willing to risk a penny and then tell all?

Did a bit of google and found this website...
someone obviously brought a load of those 1p items.. and he put it on web for free download
