Andrew and eBay work really quick. I bet the auctions are gone by tomorrow.

Seems someone named PDFkilla is bidding on all the auctions...

Wow, PDfkilla's bids were cancelled. He was called an "antifreetrader" in the explanation. I hope he doesn't resort to drastic measures, such as sniping.......
Perhaps the seller is an Acaeum member? I can't think of any other reason why the seller would cancel the bids, unless he were following this thread.

PDfkilla is a pretty obvious shill name.  I highly doubt they're reading this thread.  Of the 10 or so guys who would be reading this, I highly doubt any of them would sell pdf's.

If you snipe make sure you use a different user name as they can block you from bidding as PDfkilla!

OK, I don't want to drag up old arguments, but hopefully now everyone sees why shill accounts are useful. And this is what I used to use them for...
Fuck it, I'm bidding with my regular account. I'll trust eBay to back me up and remove the inevitable negatives. This asswipe needs to learn a lesson. Free trade. What the fuck is he, a Mexican trying to take advantage of NAFTA? I have almost all the modules he's selling for trade/sale, and I'd probably ask just a little more than the photocopies he's selling.

Ebay won't remove negatives... even if they are an attack on you.

It's a genie they can't let out of the bottle.

Shill or report him.  Leave your good name out of it.

(Or get ebayDeadlord to bid on them!) :)

Thanks, Deadlord.

Same scam as before - this guy is setting up new eBay accounts to avoid feedback hits, and running 1-day auctions to try to avoid being reported.
