What a SCAM. THIS GUY HAS STOLEN MANY EBAY ACCOUNTS. Be cautious bidding on ebay.

Leonard, all those links now come back as "invalid items" which isn't surprising I guess.

A few years ago when I was selling my 69 RS/SS Camaro on Ebay somebody contacted the high bidder at the time and said something like this - "I've decided to close the bidding even though the reserve has not been met. You are currently the high bidder so just send me the deposit of $5,000 and the deal is done. We'll work out the remaining details later. The email sender gave him a mailing address for the deposit as well". The bidder was smart and emailed me to ask if I had sent that email. As it turns out he was the eventual high bidder.

You just never know what's going on sometimes.
