Note: The seller was quoting Ted Kirkbride ... Although personally I would have thought that Ted K. would be able to spell Starck and Moulton correctly.
The seller has over 6000 positive feedbacks and only 3 negative feedbacks, for a 99.96% positive rating (which eBay kindly rounded up to 1005).
I doubt he's trying to pull a fast one ...
