              Very sad. Is anyone going to report this guy? I would, but I've done so many lately I think EBay might start ignoring me.

                TOTAL SAVINGS = $709.11

                  Halliday good job in finding, buit you are actually the second guy to report him. At least on AO.

                  lets hope this guy gets what he deserves.

                    These auctions have been posted before? Man.........
                    About reporting him, I'm not sure if that would work. While they are misleading, he does say they are for photos and I'm not sure that is breaking the rules.

                      im not sure if it is breaking the rules now since they revised them, because he up front says its a pic in his description...i remember a couple years ago, the summer before i was a freshman, there was a scam where the guy sold a high quality picture of his printer for $3000, but the way he worded, he didnt come upfront and say "this is a pic not the real printer" he worded it very slyly and got suited kinda bad, and then ebay like changed the rules to make them clearer or whatever

                              wow

                              I read and read and read and could not find where it said it was only a picture, and then I actually READ all the ramblings from top to bottom and LOW AND BEHOLD smack-dab in the middle it says, "(Please note that this auction is only for a picture of the dm4 and not for the gun it will be emailed to you shortly after the suction is over and pament is recieved.)"

                              I was thinking to myself "Good god, no wonder no one is going to read that whole paragraph - people who already know what a dm4 is will only bother with the first 4 or 5 sentences, scroll down some, scan some more, and then bid." I wouldn't do this knowing how a missed statement like that can end up making you lose a lot of money - but lots of people are more trusting and are thus suseptible to this type of scammer...
