j._mose Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 The subject camera sold by Original38 is a fraud! My friend was taken by this seller. When the camera didn't show up I have three different Ebay members send Original38 a message asking if the camera was still for sale. He responded back to all of them and said yes and he was ready for a quick sale of $600 for the Linhof with three Zeiss lenses (worth typically $2200 on Ebay). He has one positive feedback from a recent sale of a Leica M7 that was posted by another scammer. I sent several emails to the bidder of the Leica M7 telling of "Original38"s dishonesty. When I never received a response, I became suspicious that this was a setup so he could at least have one positive feedback to draw in bidders on other items. I have reported him to Ebay but they haven't done anything as of yet. Just for fun...send him a message and ask him if he is willing to sell it early!

j._mose Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 I just posted an Ebay listing of the same camera (rare) referencing the other listing as Fraud. To me it is worth $6 to save someone else a lot of expense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
