Greetings All!

  I Just wanted to share a recent Ebay experience involving Randell18 with
my fellow Lego enthusiasts. I had used the buy it now feature to purchase
auction #558717979 because it had a pic of the yellow castle and 15 lbs of
unsorted Lego parts for $150.(Another pic was included showing little detail
which was the real auction). Soon after we had the feeling the picture
looked familiar but could not place it until a fellow Ebayer pointed out
that the picture was identical to one from the over a ton of lego auction.
We inquired with Shawnboi to ensure it was a scam, which was soon verified.
Randell18 replied to Shawnbois inquiry  that he borrowed the picture to help
spruce up his auction and that people do it all the time. We both reported
Randell18 to Ebay but be leary of him in the future as he obviously is
pretty clueless when it comes to scruples and proper representation.

Thanks for your time!

Brett

PS the transaction never got to the payment stage:)
