DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 2, 2013 Author Posted July 2, 2013 I find the best deals on Ebay honestly. I love searching for Best Offers. Especially if they have bulk of an item. While back guy had 4 Helms Deeps listed for $115 shipped. Offered and Counter offered and got 4 for $95 as he wanted to sell them quick. 1 Quote

c666187 Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 A lot of legitimate sellers on eBay dropship. Its not illegal at all, it becomes a scam when the seller uses a stolen credit card to purchase the items. It is very sad that nothing can really be done about it and that's why its so rampant. The only thing we can do is not purchase the items. Its hard to shy away from deals like this but just think if you do buy you are hurting the people whose credit card info was stolen. I was able to get a ebay member banned by providing the information on their scam to eBay directly. This included the last 4 of the CC they used and their email address. My point is, if you are vigilant (and have proof), you can do something about it. Quote

I'm talking about them getting prosecuted. Quote

I'm talking about them getting prosecuted. Fair enough. For what it is worth, the eBay rep did mention the FBI on the call. She told me to not be surprised if I was contacted by lay enforcement in general. I never was,, Quote
