Since this is an obvious fraud, I am wondering why you couldn't just send the obvious evidence and links to Ebay and Paypal, and have them take immediate action against the crook.

I did a quick google on a phrase from the auction description. "Motor is fairly quite for this type of a machine." I found this: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-berliner-phonograph-110489235 The seller's location of Lithuania was not a good sign to begin with. Sorry about the news. Good luck, and keep us informed.

I paid via Paypal with a CC so if it is a issue then I have some form or protection. $400 including shipping was worth the risk of fighting over it later. I have a email into the seller. I will ask for the serial number on the reproducer.
