Just a warning, he's been on LDDb with many usernames and I consolidated them all on the single cararte account (just realized he had created yet another account as mvauto, deleted as well):

laser_predator
laser_chaser
high_def27
high_end_stuff
antinquities50

cararte (active account)
ikedadm
ld_magical
laser_paradise
mvauto


Abysmal feedbacks -- to the point where I was considering adding a "black-listed buyers" on the shops, because of transactions with that gentleman that never concluded.

Note that he does pay once in a while. About 25% of the time.

One of those names I recognise from Ebay - ld_magical.
He was selling high end MUSE LD players at one stage.
Anyone get stung?

'ld_magical' is now operating on Ebay under 'mv_cinema_consulting' and he is still selling high end laserdisc equipment.

http://shop.ebay.fr/mv_cinema_consultin ... 4340.l2562

I guess this means he will have to change his name again!

Now he's making shill posts on forums to promote his sales. I just wonder if he's as fraudulent as seller as he is a buyer, or if he merely overcharges people rather than outright stealing from them.

Most of his hardware comes from n$a and he only wanted brand new/sealed each time.

He seems to be a compulsive buyer with not enough cash and might think importing buying expensive players to sell them for even more in Europe could be a profitable business.

I did ask him to stop putting orders and creating accounts on LDDb and he replied "oh yes, I'm sorry, won't do that again". But he did.

Sigh, great all we need is some wanker that likes to ether rip some off or screw their day up.
I’ll make a note of the usernames if I come across anything dodgy on ebay that resembles this clown.

Actually he wrote to me today:

Quote:
I am contacting the sellers to complete the pending transactions.
After i do this, can i please open a new account and can you give me a chance to start from 0? I promise you this won't happen again.


I don't see the value of starting from 0. I'd rather have him become a good guy again and actually start paying for what he's purchasing from the same cararte account.

If he can show a stream of recent positive feedback, that would tell more than wiping yet-another-account.

He seems to have a compulsion to change his username, though. I mean, I think he's had the same eBay account for some time, but changed the name repeatedly. Makes me think he's mentally ill.

Or maybe split personality disorder syndrome? :crazy:

Does he have any style or order in which he does this. Does he use pictures from someone else’s Laserdisc personal pictures as I have seen other cheeky ebay sellers doing the same thing and its one of my pet hates.
