It happened to me as well today. One of the LPs he's selling that I had on my watch list has turned into a cassette recorder. Wtf? :?:
I have no idea, and the seller never responded to my inquiry...
Has anyone come up with anything about this guy??

His auctions are still change like you stated above
and some of the crazy things he sold you can't see who the winners are.

Does anyone know how you can do that?
After a auction ends you can alwasys hit the Bidders and see who was bidding K**n(29) for example, But on his crazy high auctions they say nothing..

i think now its normal... the guy who bid 500 usd for each lp isn´t bidding anymore, at least so far all the stuff that the seller listed after that crazy auctions. This auctions i think are normal prices, like Roxx for 86 usd and others... hope know i can bid some stuff that i really want! :D

I'm able to see at least the scrambled user ID's of all the winners.

Most of the crazy auctions were won either by "e***s ( 478 )" or by "t***i ( 66 )", but there were others involved too. "e***i ( 3607 )", for example put some very high bids in, but didn't win any of the items as far as I can see.

Apparently, he doesn't ship outside the US, so no use bothering.

He's got a neutral feedback saying he doesn't, but ok - it seems to apply to certain items only. Now he's added a shipping rate of $15 to everything going abroad, even 7'' singles...

I'm not saying there is anything worng with this sell, I don't kow who he is.
But there does seem to be a few strange things going on.

The big thing to me is, He seems to have a NICE collection, This is not something someone just went to a store in the USA and put together over the years. They had to really collect and know a thing or 2 about records and Metal.

So why/how could you put up auctions that look like this?

Condition Grading Record/Cover
Label name / Country ...........

He should know this kind of stuff counts just from when he purchased this stuff.

I just don't understand
