    Dave, exact reason I posted new thread...want people to pay attention that this is a "new" listing of a "similar" book. This is not the same listing as before!!! Did not want to bury it at the end of a "dead horse" thread.

    +1 - the implication from the original post is offensive

    This is a new listing from different seller than the one at the start f the other thread, with a high feedback rating and 99% positive feedback, a separate web site, and appears to sell high quality memorabilia across many sports and at many price points. Sure it could all be faked, but seems like a lot of trouble to go through for a scam. Are you really going to scam someone for a 30 picture? But, BBW.

    And let's not forget, the other guy (buyer) did something stupid by going off Ebay to say a few bucks.

    I guess none of you realized that my first words were "I make no claims, just an observation". This example is a respected eBayer, but warning signs of dramatically reduced prices and "make me an offer" are warning signs in general. You also didn't get it that the man who was scammed thought he was purchasing from the UK. I simply brought this up to show that a scammer can fake his location. It's all good if you would rather take aim at my warnings than try to spread the word that we as a community are being targeted. Good luck!

    Something else to note: A few years ago I would watch certain Jackson guitars for sale on eBay in the tune of $4-8k. I knew the seller - it was a guitar shop in NYC. A scammer would copy his adds constantly. I reported it to ebay at least 50 times. They would pull the add and the next day it was back up.

    FYI.

    Dave, are you a musician? If so, great minds think alike. I'm a pianist...

    I play guitar, less than frequently these days. Musician? Hardly. Just an 80's metal guy who dreams a lot ;)
