Congratulations to Pieter and all the other Dutch collectors! It would be a shame to see Holland go because they're one of the best teams in the tournament right now. Good luck against Portugal!! Michael

Thanks a lot Mike! Two days after the match (euforia is a little bit less now ) I have to say that the Dutch squad didn't play that well though. I think Advocaat is still too cautious. He should start games with more attacking players (Overmars instead of Van der Meide, Sneijder instead of Seedorf) and he should bring Makaaij more early. Now Van Nistelrooy stands on his own 90% of the time ... They should really play better if they want to beat Portugal! sAner

WARNING
To all sellers on ebay. Please beware of a recent buyer, user name "je_pu_du_cul".
He is bidding and ending auctions early with buy it now option and not payment and sending very vulgar messages to sellers.

Pulse8,
I got another message from another seller that was complaining. He got two of his items bought. I mention this as I saw him bidding for an item being sold by Devster ( i vaguely recall).
Is there anyway to stop him?

Mookie, Anyone who is affected by an eBay member such as this one is urged to report him to eBay. Did he buy anything of yours? If he did you can contact eBay - they take these things very seriously. If he hasn't bought any of your items, I think all you can do is urge the other sellers you have been in contact with to contact eBay themselves. It is unfortunate that these pests are allowed to continue breathing, but that's just life He will be dealt with in the end... pulse8

Mookiehk, The only way to get rid of such bidders are if they have false contact informations (like address etc.), or they get 3 Non paying bidder warnings. I'm sure all of us have had there fair share of non payers here (I've had 10!! ), but im afraid theres not much we can do about it, as there will always be a deadbeat out there.

Yeah, he's ballsed up my auction with his bid. Revealed the Reserve! Killed off any chance of any last minute bidding, even though I retracted his bid. I'm sure people would have looked at that and thought it looked dodgy. Anyway I'm going to give everyone a last chance to bid on it in a seperate thread in this forum. If I don't get any takers, it's going into a box, never to be seen again and with it the chance for someone to complete the Holy Grail!! P

A free french lesson : The translation for "je pu du cul" could be "I disagree smells".
je = I pu = smell du = from cul= ass
Maybe a poet...
PS : it's funny when I write "my A_S_S smells" it makes "I disagree smells", weird ??!!...

Pat is very wrong. Any strange behaviour like this one can and should be reported to Ebay staff. If Ebay's investigation turns out to confirm what you wrote to them, they WILL take action (usually account suspension). They always take such cases seriously!
Edit: After I saw matsor's and badoshin's posts, I have to say that someone should report this to Ebay France so that they take immediate action.

Thanks for the lesson Badoshin ;D i tought "cul" meant joke....
Anyway, what could e-bay do??? This guy can make hundreds of hotmail-accounts and come up with lot's of fake usernames. Or would they block certain IP-numbers?

Pulse8,
Unfortunately that idiot ended my auction for Boxed Flagman with the buy it now option. I am trying to get this matter settled with ebay and get the credit but then they state that i must wait like 7 days before submitting a non paying bidder notice. <sigh>
