: I have used the eBay policy of "Reporting

Dell.
'he' has done this on three different omega watch
auctions,with in each case the offending item being pulled from the listings due to 'incorrect listing info'.
at no point did the seller alert ebay to to this which i suspect is due to them not really wanting to draw attention to themselves and their dodgy listings.
as long as you have more than one e-mail address,and more than one bank account or credit card then it is possible.
Dell, i have read with intersest your past efforts with regards to fakes on auction and all i can say is lets keep up the good work and be vigilant. make life difficult for these people
