The guy who was ripping people off before. Hes been discussed previously. I dont know his name and dont particularly care.
But he needs to be stopped from selling his fakes at sky high prices. 2 of his last year fetched £300 + each.
It would appear that either e..y or himself have removed his listing which is a minor success.

If you have seen his items on ebay you must be able to provide a user name.

Not much chance of stopping him if nobody names him!
