Slightly OT: Ebay and Bid tampering

[excelguru]

I agree with Bill.

I have also been on the receiving end of a few siphoning emails, myself. I was recently bidding on a Great Dane riding mower and was solicited by a three people who (supposedly) had the same mower for so much less money (well if that's the case, why don't you put it on eBay yourself, dumbass).

When I asked the first one to send a pic of the mower, he simply sent me the pic of the item that I was currently bidding on! (It was obviously the same image.) I immediately recognized this as a scam to swindle me out of important information or money. I reported it to eBay without hesitation, as I did for the following two siphons that I received that that same week.

With the exception of such asses, eBay is wonderful.

By the way, Bill, that's a beautiful car!
