Notify paypal and get your cash back. Ebay is becoming a waste of time lately, it seems 90% of sellers are scammers.

little to see from the feed back, and nothing currently for sale.
Did you pay through paypal, and was it confirmed as payment protection for the buyer?

Is it just me or is anyone else thinking that this Sarah bird could've been her off the Benny Bonassi video....

Well why else would a bird be selling a Hilti breaker ..... "I can't get no..... satisfaction...."

Sorry to ask what may be a stupid question, but what makes some of you think the account is dodgy? (Not including the fact the items not arrived as yet)

how do you know feedback is out of date? Are these types of things dead give aways to a scam?

You can probably tell I don't use ebay!

Cheers

Last feedback is 6 months old and therefore you can't see what she has sold

Beleive me that is never an hour old

The fact she hasn't respomded despite offering 24 hour posting tells a story

I would report as soon as your able to 7 days I think

You are looking for someone with only 1 leg too looking at that pic

Maybe she had an accident with the Hilti hence the reason for sale

Id guess that its been stolen out of a van (based on everthing else that I can glean from the page)..... It looks as though its been used for 'an hour' a day solid, for the last five years!

Seller also recently listed these items 120236285601 , 120236294719 and 120236295442 - looking at the items listed they seem a bit random and low value for a scammer. It could just be the seller is a bit dozy, or isnt getting your emails.

Also, from the bike and car parts listed, I would bet on them only being 17, so they may not show up on an electoral role search, or they could be at a student house or something.

Alan. You can report an unreceived item to Ebay after 10 days. Unfortunately when the same happened to me After 10 days the funds had been cleared into the sellers account and they were no longer a member and they said tough. Good luck mate. Look on the bright side if you decide to get it delivered by hand you have 600nm torque and will get there and back on a tank..
