he lowered his starting bid price. You know he's going to ...

end the auction for somebody and get the payment outside ebay.....which means paypal won't hold it until of course good feedback is given. It will just look like some sort of payment to him.

Unbelievable!! He now has an eBay Store with a picture of a watch counter, however, the store is selling men's underwear and swimwear????????????

I wonder if he would sent me a photo of the watch with today's newspaper. Let's see if he responds????????? Hmmmmm.

Well this listing has been taken care of

This listing (320411196425) has been removed, or this item is not available.

at least for now, he will be back I think
