The fact that the "seller" lists his email address in the advert is enough for eBay to pull the auction. I think avoiding eBay fees is probably the one thing they're most worried about.

He said is was all good, so I tried to make an offer but the seller has blocked me. Now I don't think I upset him, so I can only think it's dodgy. I'll work on my social skills though.

As always buyer beware, but I'd not say it was dodgy. Regards, Carl 861v6+ID40, HD621, 8000.2, 7200HC, 7200.2, SKYQ Silver, PS3, PDP-LX6090, QNAP TS870-Pro (86TB), Roon, iPadAir2.

I have just searched eBay for the dodgy one and can't find it. I assume that eBay has removed it This is my personal account.

The original listing is here on Audiogon. It appears that the UK seller can use photoshop as the voltages have changed in the photos but they haven't been able to slant the text.... I have reported them already but it would be good if you all could report them too. Thanks, Peter This is my personal account.
