    plenty of babyboomers out there clued on, and plenty of business with capital here in SS... no such thing as at spot price on ebay unless seller has negative feedback

    i dont see why it is suspicious for someone to sell lots of stuff... can only imagine what you may think if i had 1/2 of my opal up for sale

    i reckon you will be alright with the seller... check out the users that bought off him/her, some impressive buyers giving positive feedback

    I count over 700 ounces of gold alone listed

    From a seller that does not allow local pick up

    This is the ebay sale you have just before skipping the country

    PASS.

    I was in "the Ridge" over the easter weekend. Seems to me that opal will fetch more than a buck!

    I'm guessing you're another one of those "struggling" opal miners?

    That's the beauty of using Paypal buyer protection.

    Has only recently changed listing description to add:

    Paypal orders may be held for up to a week before processing to allow funds to clear in our bank account

    I just rang the seller and he has confirmed that he is the seller and selling all that gold!

    If you were selling 700 ozs of silver, would you allow local pickup?

    and no pickup as you observed - suss after all... yep fk that
    however, maggie also doesnt do pickup :rolleyes: and heshe is one of many around aussie
    paranoia is probably the reason behind no local pickup (i.e. afraid of being robbed).

    im both a 'struggling' unemployed hick and over invested sucker in opal... not a 'struggling' miner
    got to do something with your time, and moving 10x10x10cm of earth every now n then is fun, as is posting in SS
    now back on topic

    If I was selling 700 ozs of GOLD (I wish), I wouldn't be selling it on ebay full stop.

    His feedback shows only one high value sale ever - he's mostly been selling iphones
    ...and if you check out the feedback of that buyer, they've been selling iphones as well - obvious shill purchase

    Now he lists over 100 items at the same time, with total value of more than $1 million.... :rolleyes:


    But if you reckon there might be a bargain to be had, go ahead.

    If it is indeed a scammer thats going to be a nightmare for paypal.

    Because all of the auctions end around the same time it will mean he will get paid around the same time. Thus enabling him to withdraw the lot at once never to be seen again.

    you would surely have to pay through pay pal.

    I would be very hesitant to bank transfer the money.

    seriously tempting though.
