I'm going to let it sit on the TF boards for a bit ... I posted on Allspark and TFW2005. This is a legit scam. I can match everything up and down his list.

I'll contact eBay tonight with a full list of matches.

I contacted eBay with all the examples and a good explanation. We'll see what happens though. There are 4+ days, those auctions have time to go down.

That would probably just get you negative feedback, and he relists.

I want to know what ebays response is.

if his entire auction list were to sell at market value (estimating $300 per figure @ 80 figures) ... that's $24,000 stolen. That's just as bad as the iPod guy from a week ago.
