Would of, could of, should of, canvas's, OG's, etc. It's enough to make me sick. I hope that 75% of the board uses English as second language but something tells me I am wrong.

Not only is your England (sic) bad, your reading isn't much better, the OP states in his opening post that "it conveniently has stuff stuck to the rear which covers the WCP stamps"!

He's also sold at least three signed banks tenners for £100 / £166 a pop… (douche) but his poor english is consistent.

Don't worry I think most people got your sarcasm although it clearly sailed over the head of one person though !

Deliberate? As opposed to accidental? This is no accident. The OP provided the back story - the ebay seller should realise that less is more when it comes to story telling!
Isn't fraud, fraud and this not another example of how ebay has become a chancer's paradise?

Really? Which part?
The (cancelled) opening bid was £500! I sincerely hope that wasn't a genuine bid.

As mentioned they aren't on the forum that I'm aware of, everyone can see their eBay ID, to get their real name I would have to look back through my paypal and find it but I'm not sure if that would be any use?

A real name and email address would be the very most useful thing. People can change their eBay id.
