Yeah, it smelled funny, so I sent a few messages to ebay security...
when the listing first appeared, and then reappeared after you won the first auction. I added in the comments that I "heard" on some on-line forum that people were contacted by the seller requesting a much higher amount than the winning bid.
Glad that you, and others, were not harmed by this seller. I buy and sell lots of stuff on ebay, and this kind of behavior makes me sick! Makes it harder to sell stuff when people try to scam.
Here is my post from earlier about the second listing getting deleted by ebay...<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/466757.phtml">ebay scam</a></li></ul>
