I hate to see people do bullshit like this. They buy a limited edition repro for resell, and falsely advertise it as an original prototype. The sad thing is someones probably going to end up paying a few $100 for it, unaware that it’s a reproduction.

Here’s the link to report him :

Report it as

Report Category : Listing Practices
Reason for Report : Search Manipulation
Detailed Reason : Misleading Title

Reported as:

Report Category: Copyright and trademark
Reason for Report: Counterfeit item or authenticity disclaimer
Detailed Reason: Counterfeit, fake, or replica items

Description: “Trying to sell replica as much overpriced genuine prototype.”

Thanks guys. Just reported the listing.

Son of Bi… . Just reported

I’m not sure what happened. The auction says: “This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.”

You can see there were 5 offers and that 4 have been declined. So I guess he found some fool who bought it.

We should bid to the top, and cancel paying once and again….these are the kind of guys (especulators) that are not needed in the community.

I saw this pop up the other day, was pretty surprised. Pretty douchey of him to go all profiteering like that.

Hope it got pulled, or at least that he made very little off it in the end.

For future reference, don’t report things as counterfeit or replica because eBay won’t accept those reports unless you join the VeRO program and file a takedown notice, and you can only do that if you are the rights owner.

The only way to get them to take action is for misleading titles and keyword spamming.
