Nice! Posting an ad for your auction under the guise of a request for
help. Very clever. Does it work?

Now run along and get a new angle, insignificant little man.

Dave,

I did just as you suggested, went to Google Groups and looked up
cardcritter.RemoveThis@hotmail.com. I found 46 posts on record, this one, and only one
other - pertaining to The Franklin Press - posted to rec.collecting.books.
I don't see anything to impeach him.

As to the Ebay listing for the Easton Bradbury, are you saying that this

the seller of said book, is cardcritter.RemoveThis@hotmail.com (Larry H.)?

If this is so, what is the basis of your flame, because I just don't see it?

I'm just asking a question here...

I plugged it in. I don't understand your logic. All it proves is that the
guy doesn't know how to use Ebay search tools very well.

The auction we were supposed to find is from seller vespertin, who is Rich
Davis--who is also the OP Larry H and a few others (troll no. 69, Deals
Galore). I'm also pretty sure this Christopher Foray is yet another Rich
Davis sockpuppet. "Who the hell is Rich Davis?" I love it!

Rich: You're a pip, man. But don't carry things too far. You're
pinched--admit it.

There are two Easton Press Fahrenheit 451s on Ebay. The other is by
icollectunique ( 13).

David

Yes, I saw the headers for these posts, and yes it does appear that he does
indeed do exactly as you said. However, when I did the Google Groups search,
I looked only for rec.collecting.books postings and only saw the two.

Case proved as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks for treating this as simply a question asked (and answered).

Since David has lost patience and isn't going to spell things out any
further than he already has done, the point is that the same poster is
posting queries about different eBay items, all following the same format -
i.e., with enough information that anyone with two brain cells can find the
item concerned, but pretending that he himself is so thick that he just
can't find it and needs to be pointed in the right direction.

The guy's an obvious plonker who thinks he's found a good way to plug his
auctions.

right,
if a friend of yours told you about an auction - and you couldnt find it -
you would naturally post on usenet, rather than asking your friend for the url,
right?
