Well, the scam one-day auction many of us first observed early this morning was never pulled by eBay (despite at least 3 CR members reporting it to eBay as fraudulent) and ended on schedule late this afternoon with 8 bids; high bid was $512.73! The unfortunate high bidder has zero feedback. Note that, unlike some other scams we've discussed, this one did not require payment by wire transfer, but required payment by cashiers check or money order.
