What if a long time and experienced poster seller / dealer were to
call Ebay and talk to a LIVE person, explain who they are and the
situation and see if Ebay would pull the auction from their end,
rather than wait for this scumbag to-- since it seems he is not going
to respond or withdraw the auction on his own.
I would think the customer reps / or fraud dept. at ebay would take
some action.

I've emailed the guy selling the Portal Repro Casablanca----in
fact I initially emailed him BEFORE it was even brought up on MoPo--
telling him it was a REPRO not an original poster. I explained to
him that I'd been dealing and collecting movie posters for almost
30 years, etc, etc. He TOTALLY IGNORED my advice to revise his
description--remember, this was BEFORE there were any bids--when he
COULD revise it.
I emailed him today with a stern warning that if he doesn't stop
the auction IMMEDIATELY and explain the situation to the duped
bidders, a contingent of a dozen or more movie poster collectors
and dealers will inform eBay that he has knowingly committed a
fraudulent act by selling a worthless piece of garbage as an
"original" poster. I know some other MoPoers will take action in
this regard. Hey, I just don't want to see some poor, unsuspecting
buyer spend his hard-earned money on a $5 repro (being trimmed, it
probably wouldn't even bring in five bucks!) I'll let you know if
he responds.
