There have been a few things from them in the ebay section that i recall from a year or 2 ago and those threads questioned the quality of advertised goods.

I don't personally know anything about them but i remember in particular some engine blocks "reconditioned" and that supercharged mini.

I've seen tons of eBay listings from this guy, and all I have to say is "buyer beware".

I think that listing would definitely breach ebay's listing regulations :wink:

Actually, if you buy the screw for one cent, thats a win. It would cost him for the listing and the photos, and the postage. It would cost him $3 for you to buy the 1c item.

If nobody buys it, he gets to relist for free.
