A pal won a huge lot of items, and then the day of pickup, some rat bastard stole them.

They refunded his cash, but it seems the items surfaced on ebay.

Looks like ebay already took action. He/She is no longer registered.

It seems one of the katanas stolen from my lot was sold by him as well.

That's pretty messed up. Is eBay going to do anything other than ban the user?

Katana was bought by him, not sold. It was sold by great4lowprices. Great4... also had another... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=4303&item=8211846720

Glad you spotted these, well done! Shame though, not much can be done. Inform Buyatari that if they are still completing, they are buying stolen goods. I doubt they'd want a hand in that.

Have you noticed how BOTH sellers are in New York, and both were selling very similar Hoover products? What a coincidence!!

Damn.. so what happen to your money your buddy put down for the lot? Did they return it or was he shit out of luck?

How could everyone have missed that auction? It went for only 510$usd?! At least you can be "glad" that the thief didnt get 5000$usd for the stuff.

Wasnt BuyAtari at the Acclaim bankruptcy auction?

Um.. o.k.

I thought because all of the legal battles you went through that you talked about to us, someone like an angry bidder from that auction was making a false claim against you.

wow, that auction was great, and as shiggsy said, for about 500$ it's kinda cheap

topic related: robbers can be soo dumb, but what can ebay do? :\

The $400 I originally paid for that lot at the Acclaim auction was even cheaper!

So that was your lot? I thought you were mainly into Famicom/Nintendo stuff.

It wasn't my eBay lot, no. I bought that from Acclaim, and this guy stole it from me.

Well shit, how about Ebay coughing up some info on these dirtbags so you can call the cops and get thier asses put away?

That's what I figured.

Retro: I meant Famicom/Nintendo as in the original console, not the 64.

At any rate, I was just curious.
