Eric,
I see that the auction has now eneded.

Did you ever get a reply from ebay?

I would be intrested in knowing how many $5 he made.

Of course if you were really devious... buy the product then claim
fraud to paypal and get his paypal account frozen. That would be really
nasty.

Let us know if you hear from ebay
Charles
