Unbelievable.  This is the same guy who was running the false "buy it now" for 124.99
8458 Dutch auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=530040866
He put up one Silver Champion for 124.99 but promised others to get around the
listing fees for a Dutch auction.  A real scalper.
