Shamshir Listed on eBay - BEWARE of SCAM!

You are 100% correct. I found it out yesterday, since I never ever was interested in it. Now I know....

I think the behavior of E-Bay is reprehensible. They ask for a proof of a scam: you had it and offered to provide an iron-clad case, but they just ignored you.

The " winner"... poor schmuck....

As suspected, the listing was ended by the seller "because there was an error in the listing". I am afraid it could be buy-now offer from unsuspected victim who does not realize eBay does not cover bank transfer.

I would have gone with the million dollar bid; I liked that idea .

I sent the seller a link to this discussion and asked if they actually owned the sword being sold, a short time later the auction was ended, no way of telling if this had anything to do with the auction being ended.
