Default EBAY crook disappeared???

I have been following all of his auctions since my run-in with him and have been contacting his bidders. Yesterday he had a bout ten cars listed and today there are ZERO???? Another forum member told me that he was double listing his cars on ebay and yahoo auctions. I think he may have moved over there completely.....

Hey Rottie, Just wondering how you are doing with the car? I am glad things worked out and you finally got your car. :cool:
I buy a few things from the corvette museums auction every now and then. Since what has happened to you I am leery of letting go of any money over the internet now.

Auctions are one of the few dangerous sites on the internet to give money out on, most shopping sites are safe.

The car is coming along slowly. My wife is not too willing to spend more on the car after the $$$ that went to the lawyer. I am very close to getting the exhaust on. Might get to drive it this year.....

Dude, I would hate to get on your bad side. I know the experience was crappy, but it's time to let the wounds heal. :) Nah, keep it up, it's entertaining.
I laugh everytime I see those dogs. My neighbor has two also. The other day I stopped by to get help from him and one of them pick me up by my butt with his nose. I weigh 215 and it's only a puppy. :eek:

here is one of his listings:
http://page.auctions.shopping.yahoo....aucview=search

Here is one of his cars. I think it's a nice car and I am sure that someone will get a great deal. The thing I can't do is to just drop it. I have a little support group that seems to have been formed by his deeds. There are about ten of us that email each other and complain. We also manage to mess around with his auctions. I know that is frowned upon by professional ebay'ers but I feel that I deserve a little justice. There is not much we can do other than make it difficult for him to sell cars. He has been listing cars on multiple auctions and also using fake bidders just in case the bids don't get high enough.

Enough crying for now....more to follow

hey if this guy ripped people off and is still out there then hunting him down is protecting everyone else. Unscrupulous dealers need to be hunted and harrassed till they are gone. The Bin Laden Treatment.
