KC 1st pattern and German Cross at Ebay

[streptile]

I sent him message via eBay asking him to explain why he withdrew the item. I'm still in the running for the DKiG, though.

Good luck and please tell us what he says.

WTF ??? Seems vendor has cancelled the RK while I was highest bidder ...... ???

I'm not surprised. This is a typical event these days.

I don't know what's worse, the seller for taking a back-hander and screwing the legitimate bidders or the scum-bag that harasses the seller into selling them the piece under the table.

Got reply .... Seems the RK + other items were stolen from him whilst presenting them at ... and I quote him .... " flea-market ". Hmm ???
He goes on by saying its a damn shame, seeing the bids had already risen above 200 €.

A typical standard answer. I just heard that a few times from some sellers. That stinks....

[ekhunter]

Hmmm!

A likely story. As we like to say down here in Louisiana, "you better put on the ole hip waders, cause it sounds like it's gonna get pretty deep". No doubt you got back-doored my friend. It's happened to me before on esucks. Someone came in and made him an offer he wouldn't refuse. Keep your eyes open, the cross might pop up on one of the Forums in the coming weeks or months. At least that is what happened to me. Sorry.

I can still see that it hurts.

Yeah right, Standard story they always tell.

But if it is really stolen, the seller will be happy if the pictures are posted here.
I saved them before, here are they:

Good idea, Luud & thanks .

[Seewolf]

I think we all keep our eyes open to this cross

[Mike Yokum]

Apparently he only took the RK to this "flea market" and not the several other items he still has listed. Not a very believable guy! Cash does funny things to people of lower character.

I'm glad you posted the pics Luud for several reasons...

[Matthieu]

Lets hope the DKiG he offers doesnt get lost ... I'm still quite keen on that one.

[old siagon]

Good Luck!

I would rather deal with you guys any day!
Happy & safe Hunting!

Hi guys, DKiG sold for 276 € and I am, once again, NOT the lucky buyer ...
