Kingston Dubcutter on eBay - Fake listing - CHECK IT OUT???

[Noise Factory]

Hi everyone

I saw a listing on eBay for a Kingston Dubcutter for sale. It looked very similar to a previous listing back in march. I found the "old" item on a link on an other site.

This is the link to the old listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Kingston-Dub-Cutter-Vinyl-Recorder-Record-Cutter_W0QQitemZ5877023939

This is the new listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Kingston-Dub-Cutter-Vinyl-Recorder-Record-Cutter_W0QQitemZ110000879388QQihZ001QQcategoryZ3278QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Its the same background story, the same item, the same info etc.
I have tried to get in contact with the seller to hand me info on this item, no reply. Theres no feedback, the seller joined eBay very recently!

Could anybody try and contact the seller to get some info and post it here!
I believe its a fake listing, but if not I am of course interested.

Best
Mikael

ATTENTION:

do not buy this unit, it's probably fake, since the item listed first has been sold already !!

I saw this listing on ebay and was wondering if it is legit, or related to the potential fake postings listed above (the links above have expired). Looks like a new seller. Thanks for any help!

If it looks to good to be true, then it's probably not

DO NOT buy! Its the same photos. Also there is no feedback for this seller. Fake listing!

Thanks for the input - I kind of had a suspicion that it was. Has this been an ongoing fake listing?

This auction is up again under yet another sellers name with 0 feedback. I would realy be interested in that cutter if he was legit, so I asked him for some additional photos. He sent me cropped photos of that same photograph, and told me in broken english, that he would end the auction early and sell it to me for 2000. I don't know what we could do to stop this guy, beyond just monitoring the auction, and if someone is niave enough to make a bid notify them immediately. I have been ripped off on ebay before, as have many others. He now accepts paypal and says that 10% will go to a charitable cause, I guess as a ploy to win trust. I don't know how he plans on screwing paypal unless he has fake aliases, which I realy wouldn't be surprised.

But yeah, based on those pictures, I'd have to say this guy is deffinently a crook.

[thee bugged one]

Well someone is currently bidding on it.

I went back and checked the email he sent me, and his english wasn't as bad as I thought it was, but he did say he would be shipping it from his studio in Tampa, Florida...and the auction says he's in Memphis, MO.

Here's the new auction:

AGAIN:

do not buy this unit, it's probably fake, since the item listed first has been sold already !!

this also holds true for the neumann vms which is for sale out of namibia...

cheers mex

I noticed this listing is back up again, same exact picture, but I noticed the person is located at a different place. Seems a little strange
