Icon20 Need some opinions - Strangest eBay seller I've seen yet...

OK guys so this seller(https://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_ssn=luigi77047) has lots of feedback but check out what he's selling, cheap underwear and some of the most expensive watches and jewelry on the market, how can you explain this?

Perhaps the profit on the $10 underwear pays the rent until he sells his next $21M necklace

I've noticed watermarks on the higher end pieces and reached out to the entity watermarked, here is the reply:

Jewellery Masterpiece

"Hi,
Thank you for getting in touch with me.
No, it's not me !!!��
Someone just stole my photos.
So I guess, the seller is not authentic."

I reported 43 of his auctions . . .

. . . and they're now gone, but I missed a couple over a million bucks.

He had about $150 million to start with, and I've reported the JlC and Cartier necklace I missed, but I'm not going to bother with the remainder.

I've asked for his suspension, but I'm not sure what eBay will do . . .

eBay has him pegged . . .

He keeps listing $21 million necklaces, and eBay is killing them as fast as he can post. He went from 213 auctions to 316 auctions to 213 auctions in the space of a few minutes.

I doubt they will brook his nonsense much longer . . .


BTW, I've reported an additional 72 of his auctions.

eBay said 'enough'

273 auctions gone.

No socks, no underwear, no $21 million Cartier necklaces.

But don't they charge a listing fee that correlates with the price?

I checked out "completed listings" and there were a bunch of multi-million dollar items that completed with no sale so that must cost something, what the heck are people thinking??

Someone should buy them all and not pay - he will be left to complain to ebay to have his final valuation fees credited.

Just ordered myself the $4'000,000.00 Patek, $3'000.000.00 AP and the 150'000'000.00 Harry Winston bracelet for this chick I met on Tinder. Oh I asked if he'll throw in some underwear and a few socks.

I'm finding that you could spend all freaking day reporting ebay sellers if you wanted to.
