I lost almost $1000 in my last ebay auction. The seller had two years of selling, 2 negatives and almost 200 positives. He gave his home phone, cell phone, home address and every other piece of information you could want and now everything is disconnected and he has vanished. I even talked to him and his girlfriend on the phone a couple times and he assured me the product would come but of course it never did. He has over $30,000 and the police cant find him anywhere. Its been almost 4 months and very little has been done, although at least ebay contacted the local police. Just another example of how you can never really trust ebay.
