Suspected scammer on eBay

[sync]

Last week I bought an expensive sewing video on eBay for a gift. The guy never responded when I asked if he received my PayPal payment and when he would ship. After checking out his account I see all sorts of things that are quite suspicious. If he's a scammer I know he'll eventually get shut down and then just start up again. But I feel like I should alert eBay and stop more people from getting ripped off, if possible. After looking thru the eBay site, I don't see any way to do this.

Take a look at the Buyer Protection Page.

What's the seller's username? What's so suspicious about his account?

I think a guy admitting to purchasing a sewing vid is probably more shameful (assuming the OP is male, of course).

Right on. But most of what this guy sells is porn.

His id is '*elgreco*'. Look at how his feedback is from buying cheap recipes. Look at his latest feedback and look at that person's feedback and see how many are NARU.

Check out the auctions for *elgreco* and you see that the terms and the font are not consistent. I think he downloaded all these auctions from previous listings. He sells a lot of quite expensive videos. The one I bought sells for $72 and is only available at a couple places and is never discounted.

I just noticed that his current listings are all 1 day auctions. Last week they were longer. I suspect this is the last time he'll be listing under this id. Anyone think there's any point in trying to warn eBay?
