get in on the fun!

if private auction listings have turned ebay "pro audio" into a nearly safe haven for scammers, then measures must be taken.

the mic in question was sold by me in January to a great guy for a fair price.

One instance where ebay worked as it should with mutual buyer and seller satisfaction.

if ebay doesn't seem to care it is hosting a bogus listing, then they also shouldn't care if certain members of its community are stepping up to poke holes in one of the sh*t-filled balloons they rent out.

Private auctions allow scammers the gas to float just out of reach...

I hope dude raises a stink when he isn't able to collect payment on a mic he doesn't even have.

Seems like ebay would have moderators who could RULE their appropriate sections and just not tolerate any of this kind of crap.

anyway, join in the fun, I think we have a wiener!
