do you know the seller, seems to me a one day auction a bit of a red flag. sorry if the seller reads this but why one day, need quick cash...?

pixs that are lifted then put on one day auction don't get found in time....maybe I just paranoid, sorry if its on the up and up. :doubt:

Description and pictures appaear to be from Yuzo. So either he had previously bought it from him or it's a scam. Atleast it sold for what a real one should have :|

No i didn,t know the seller and being in Australia missed the auction end.

You were spot on,that one day listing had me worried too!

I wonder if it was pulled due to a scammer or its another auction hijack which seems to be happening more and more.

Update

 

I just recieved a fraud alert from ebay about the seller " backintimetorino " so

stay clear if you get offered a second chance bid etc.

Hello Stephen, I think it would have been no steal at 6k anyway. YOu can pick up a papered Yasunori at this price in Japan.

 

The account got hijacked.

 

Here is a cheap piece of advice:

 

If a seller states the item is in the UK (while he is registered in a different country) be carefull. I do not know why but scammers from South East Asia and Eastern Europe tend to user wires to the UK as means of payment.

 

Best thing to do when you feel suspicious is to ask the seller for a phone number. If he is a sammer he will

 

a) Not reply to you

b) Insist on calling YOU

c) Give you a number with a different country prefix then the one he actually should have

 

Oh, and never ever do Western Union. Not only are their fees a giant pain in the ass buty ou have no way of tracing to him you actually made the payment ...

 

Just my two cents after having paid several thousand times that amount to scammers.
