    It ain't a scam. Just a good way to make money off of stupid people.

      penguin, you're completly wrong. It was a scam because he started selling his dm4 until someone bidded on it and then changed it to just pics of a dm4 thus making it a rip off.


      and even if he told the bidders it was pics of a dm4 the whole time, its a little thing called ethics. which clearly some of you don't have.
      who ever said "its not whether you win or lose..." probably lost.

        Auction ended, final price of $710 for some DM4 pictures. I e-mailed the high bidder when I was at work, so if he sends money he's truly a fool.

          didnt read all that...but he still has it in the "markers" so regardless he was definitely trying to pass it off as a dm4 so he is for sure trying to scam people.

            Well, since the pictures are *of* a marker and the only other place he could put them under paintball is under "other", I'd say the seller wasn't too far off.

              Yeah, I see REDz pants in the "Gear Bags" section all the time... nothing is where its supposed to be. Hell, I think I even saw a fishing rod in there once.

I think you guys are missing the point: He is trying to scam people, and someone will get screwed if they pay $500+ for pictures. Do they deserve it because they missed him revising the auction? Personally, I don't think so.

                like i said before, i woulda thought it suspicious with the different dm4s in different pics. however, when i bid on anything on ebay, i watch it and usually check on it when ever i come online, and therefore wouldve seen the change in the auction had i bid on it.

                  I guess eBay should make a "Paintball Memorabilia" section

                          The first guy tried to type that disclamer in small font - but it still came through. If you really wanted to rip someone off... I would use white font. Select below the banana to see what I wrote:


                          HEY LOOSER, YOU ARE ONLY BIDDING ON DM4 PICTURES... NOT THE ACTUAL GUN. I HOPE I RIP YOU OFF FOR AT LEAST $500 SO I CAN SPEND IT ALL ON BOOZE AND HOOKERS. THANKS FOR BUYING MY PICTURES, YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF CRAP!!

                          Get it?

                            Lol, your white font actually shows a bit on this grey backgroung ... personally I try to help out my friends as much as I can with ebay...

                            Like those auctions that say " You are not bidding on an actual xbox, you are bidding on a link to receive a free xbox that will be sent once the auction has ended" ...

                            like wtf? come on... how would that ever work? Meh, bad bad people.
