crook-bay does it again!

[werner]

Hi,

 

I came across this seller and saw that he copied candelaria2007's swords and tried to sell these....I informed candelaria2007 about it and ebay closed the auctions....not that crook-bay was worried about this criminal...didn't get kicked out nothing....now he does it again:

and again 2 of candelaria2007's swords....

 

I reported it to ebay and candelaria2007....the thing that get's me going is that ebay is made aware of a criminal and still allows such convicted/exposed bastards to keep their account and keep trying to steal money of honest folks....

 

I tried to bit $5000 on each of these - but seller didn't allow me as he blocked me from bitting after I exposed him recently...

 

Just annoyed about crook-bay actually....feels good to express one-self..

Hi Jock,

 

Thanks for letting us know. I also had a look at the blades and noticed that the style of the auction is that of candelaria2007. I thought at first that the seller is trying to resell blades that were acquired from candelaria2007 originally.

 

However, can you please let me know why you would be willing to spend $ 5,000 on each of them. Although they seem to be okay, I think they aren't worth any close to $ 5,000

 

Thanks,

 

Stephan

Presumably the high bid is to deter any other bidders that don't realise the auction is fraudulent.

 

Thanks for the heads up, Jock.

[Curgan]

I think he wanted to expose the scammer and not really buy it ...

 

Ups Lee got to it first...

[Jean]

Just an advice, don't bite the dealer. You could get rabbies :D :D

Hi,

 

Yeap, I saw that there were some bits on one of them already and thought I could put a high bit on it to avoid anybody losing money to this scam.

He is Italian

He is Italian

 

Sent him an advise. Next step will be to get involved the "Polizia Postale".

[Stephen]

I have him on the hook, his email is RUBENEBUR@HOTMAIL.IT still waiting for other pix....lol which he cant take, hes expecting me to PP him LOL. pass it along to the polizia if you like.

[jason_mazzy]

Pwazamo luckily did post the scammer in their listings.

[Carlo Giuseppe Tacchini]

pass it along to the polizia if you like.

 

All should be in order now.

Swords are still considered war-weapons in Italy and he have to demonstrate what he's listing is properly registered otherwise things could get *really* serious.

Please let me know if he'll try again.

[Carlo Giuseppe Tacchini]

Thanks Stephen for his e-mail. Was useful.

 

@ Lorenzo, per favore se lo rifà per favore contattami.

Ilon sapevo si trattasse di un giro cosi grosso cmq ora ho chiuso tutto ho pure annullato una transazione. non volevo pestare i

piedi a nessullo infatti ho aspettato che candelaria fillisse la vendita prima di mettere il mio annullcio cmq se mi dici che è tutto ok va bene. grazie ciao!!!

I hope I don't mangle your language too bad Carlo. I left out extraneous stuff.

This seems to say something like;

Dear, tsubame1, Knowing this to be a big (problem), I have closed all (auctions) and cancelled a transaction. I don’t want to step on any feet, in fact I have waited for ‘candeleria’ to finish his sales before starting my auction. If you say all is OK that would be good. Thankyou, Ciao.

[Lorenzo]

correct

[Carlo Giuseppe Tacchini]

He thanks me for just having scared him instead of calling the Polizia Postale. That still remains a viable

option if the crook will re-present himself, just as an "extrema ratio"...

Hi Folks,

 

Seller changed his attitude and is now focusing on blades in line with his moral standards:
