NEW SCAM - HOW TO WIN EVERY EBAY AUCTION FOR FREE - No I'm not kidding /t5/Disputes-and-claims-Archive/NEW-SCAM-HOW-TO-WIN-EVERY-EBAY-AUCTION-FOR-FREE-No-I-m-not/td-p/56205 The buyer purchased my item through EBay - then nearly 3 months later, complained through EBay, but his gripes were completely unfounded.
