That latest one is under another seller from last night
Seller information
nazarus868 (886 Feedback score: 886)

What do they do- break into ebay sellers pages and then offer a scam sale?

Yes he is hacking into ebayer's accounts and listing the item so they are paying for the add.

He is also doing it with a tornado too.

On the net I have found mini diggers, mountain bikes and other high value items at a bargain price all using the same email.

Having fun with him. Have ask him how he can be selling my boat. His answer was. He has one the same. I've come back with. There's only one MacRib and copying the ad word for word is fraud. He's back. You can report if you like and he will change pics. I went back already reported. Gotta larf

Sent him a message saying that I missed out on the original auction & am keen to own the boat, but I want to view it first.

Ah, I may have blown it. I asked him why he's such a c***t. Be nice if you could track down where he is.

I wonder how many people are putting their Searider up for sale thinking the market price has gone through the roof!

Magical? Why don't two of you just bid a million on it? Or just use all the zeros in the bid amount field? Hey, if you get a bid of £100,000 trillion on a Searider - you could call Guinness!

If they are that desirable I may consider selling Tigga the SR4 and get a Pascoe instead
