Hmmm - claims to have 4, no mention of the limited
functionality/developer-only caveats, and AFAIK the developer models
have yet to actually ship - so apparently ordered and is re-selling
before having them in-hand.  This may well ruin his 100% positive
ratings.

If it is in fact his ratings.
Have a quick look.
Yes - the account has been active since 2001.
The account has been completely idle since 2005 - apart from one phone sale in febuary.
Multiple quantity.
Immediate payment required.

I would say there is a better than 50% chance that the account has been taken over 2-3 weeks ago. Note the low-value probe transaction buying invites then.

Add a fraudulent paypal account, and if they all sell, then he can push the money to a bank account under his control, and away he walks with $1600 or so.
Some buyers may be able to claim refunds under paypal buyer protection.
