Thanks, Channing for the heads up. I just blocked him on my account. The trouble is Ebay and PayPal always take the side of these scam artists. When you block them, they simply register another Ebay name and continue bidding on your site. It’s an annoying waste of time.
I finally reaped revenge on someone who pulled the same stunt on me. They bought a lobby card and then claimed is was a fake, although it was from an obscure Lucille Ball title that no one would bother to reprint. They didn’t want to return the card, until I issued a refund, which I don’t do until I receive the item back. He complained to PayPal and after lots of back and forth, he decided not to return the card, but he left me a negative. I blocked him, but every time I have some Lucille Ball items he wants, he re-registers under another name, sometimes using his wife or daughter’s name on the account. The last time he attempted this on a very expensive Lucille Ball title card, I recognized him from his new name, and reported him to Ebay. It seems he had opened about 15 Ebay accounts under different names, and Ebay had no idea he was doing this! Finally, they suspended his accounts. Policing all of this nonsense, though, is a total waste of a dealer’s time. Too bad, Ebay is not more responsive.

He said my Chantrall Quad was a counterfeit (can you imagine counterfeiting a poster for an unknown movie that nobody’s ever wanted?) and claimed the other poster wasn’t as represented in the photo; asking to return both and after my return period. He’s in London and his name is kozaman78 (Kozan Nadji). You might consider blocking him on EBAY to avoid the headaches and the money. EBAY, of course, sided with him.
