But I feel better now. I also saw that one good member of our forum also bought from him (in january) and left positive feedback... that's another good sign.

I guess, I am of a too much cautious nature. Now, I will just wait patiently to see if my items arrives.
If it's the seller I'm thinking about, you have nothing to worry about.
It does take forever to get here...

Yes Hulligan, it's him. And you were the forum member that I was referring to.
Thanks for your message. Now, I start to believe I will finally get my items.

Hey,

Keep in mind that crooks from Baltics use multiple eBay accounts to pull their scams.

This guy Vlad that we all discussed here on forum - he operated from several e-mail addresses and eBya acconts. For all I know - he may be still overe there on eBay selling to unsuspecting victims.

This another seller from Latvia - mostly sells fake German WWI period items - he was banned from eBay several times, but still manages to come back with new identity (with the same items though)...

My rule is - to stay away from Baltics/Russia, no matter how good the deal may seem... It's better to buy items from sources you trust - you may be paying more, but at least you know that your seller will not disappear with your money...

William

I will steer clear for that group, the man could be good but I cannot risk the money.

Good work Molder!

Looks like our Kazakh seller "borrowed" the images from the other site!

Scam probability = 99.999%

Jeez...

...looks like this guy just reinvented the easiest all-time scam.

I wonder if we should let the guy from mirnagrad know?

510 USD. Poor guy (serious guy, he has over 80 positive fb). Let's keep our eyes on this and see what happens.

It is. The lower rivets are in the wrong place.
