First, I am sorry for posting on currently listed for sale item. The problem is that this item is mine... and the seller is someone else from Ukraine.
This shamshir (
eBay link ) was bought by me from one of the most reputable eBayers and highly esteemed member of this Forum in 2010. The earlier pictures were used by the scammer from Ukraine to list it now. Notice they do not show the whole item and open the auction at 0.99 with no reserve. I am surprised they accept Paypal, but likely have other plans in mind.
I will contact eBay with the link to this post and report the scam. Hope they will stop the auction and ban the user.
