Sellers can reject bids. This is supposed to protect the seller from
buyers with poor ratings. This may be what they
I do not understand how the listing part of the scam works.
An item is offered for BUY IT NOW price of say $5000. item trades at say
$7-8000. item is sitting at bid price of couple hundred dollars. not many
bidders.
the seller seems completely legal. has 98-100% favorable rating, 100-200

I am not quite that active, but I have never had Ebay ask me to
change my password. Are you a powerseller?
If paypal refunded your money ion 24hrs. You have just experienced a
modern miracle.

Hmm I don't use ebay all that much but I have never had them ask me to
