Well Joe. You've been outed. That was quick! That flag on your post guarantees that no one will bid. Oh wait, one of us might bid. We are an army of GB users who look for fraud. When we find sleaze bags like you we sometimes bid just so we can write a review exposing your shitty ass. If some naive person doesn't see the flag and makes a bid, one of us will Buy It Now, and not pay. No one will pay. Life's hard for shitheads like you!
