I hate when people do this.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Is it the same seller trying to cel both cels on two auction sites? Or is it someone bidding on the cels on YJ in hopes to win them so they can resell on eBay, even though they do not even have the cels in hand?

Thankfully they can be reported on ebay and delisted. Everyone here should do that to send a message that either scamming people, or double posting, is not acceptable.

This seller appears to be doing this with several other auctions as well.

I reported them to E-bay regarding a recent auction of theirs. That auction seemed to have 'mysteriously' vanished, but several of their other items were not deleted.

I think it's one seller listing at 2 different auction sites. The current bidder on Yahoo JP is a deputy and the seller on ebay is located in Japan.

Actually, no. The seller on Ebay is located in Tokushima, and the cels on YJ are from two different sellers located in two different places (Osaka for the SM, and Fukashima in the Touhoku area for the Kenshin, both of which are far from Tokushima).

What's happening is that the Ebay seller will buy the YJ auction if he/she gets a bid on the Ebay one. If the YJ auction goes too high, they'll probably just refund the buyer's money.

Gads what the hell is happening to ebay lately?

Its so full of bullshit sellers pulling this same
crap!
Not something you'd see all the time before... occasionally
yes... but this is becoming a weekly thing nowadays

Its like a fishy red tide that wont go away.

Sorry had to rant.

This whole situation is pissing the flying ^%@# out of
me.

As if the hobby wasn't getting enough flakes and frauds
