SP5 BIN=$2000

Absolute scammer. Born yesterday and has the classic Buy Now (only) function on all six items. Who in their right mind would put just the Buy Now feature on every item they have for sale, and that price far below market? I see he already sold the SP5 and just happens to have another one for sale (relisted); and only $2000 to boot. I'd bet he's attempting to set up a bunch of shill buyer accounts to inflate his rating.
 
someone is going to take it hard in the "caboose" with no lube and without the courtesy of a reach around

I busted a bigtime scammer about three weeks ago that had eleven fake accounts as shill buyers and/or scam sellers. Each of these accounts were giving each other 'reach arounds' to quickly inflate their 'positive' ratings; some had nearly 10 A+ ratings. This was a huge network and each account led to other accounts that led to other accounts. This scammer had been working on his network of fake accounts for quite some time; even had some 'sleeper cell' accounts to make it look like they were longtime GunBroker users. Once I noticed a pattern on all the buyers/sellers, I made a complete listing to ensure I'd get 'em all at once w/o leaving anyone out. Then I did a Blitzkrieg Buy Now on somewhere north of 40 scams. Man, that scammer didn't have time to react as I took down each scam one one after another and all within minutes.

I always wait until after I nuke all the scams; then go back and grace the dirtbag with stellar F-Ratings. I already had two burner plate F-Rating responses that listed all the usernames as tied together as either scam sellers or shill buyers. I bet this scammer was overly pissed that he and all his fake accounts had been ratted out as scams.

This scammer took down every username except for one shill buyer with an A+(4) rating. I kept watch on this one last active account and even did a follow up fraud report with GunBroker to see if they'd take down this one rogue account; yeah, wishful thinking. Then yesterday, after I had been watching this one last active account for several weeks, suddenly his rating bumped up to A+(5)... A quick click on the auction number revealed this same scammer started his scheme once again with this one last remaining shill buyer account. I took down the scammer's two listings and he's now gone, but that SOB kept this one shill buyer alive yet; even with me mentioning the shill buyer in his negative feedback rating I gave him.
