Seems there have been several mentions of concerns about this ebay powerseller, lastly being a failure to mention in one of their auctions that the listed cards were trimmed despite previously purchasing them through through an auction in which they were clearly stated as trimmed.

Upon doing a little research it appears one of the other subtle habits this seller has might also reflect upon the bigger picture. After looking at some of the listed scans with their descriptions, something seemed very strange.....these were the scans\pictures that the previous ebay seller used from which they purchased the item. The ink on the Paypal transaction wasn't even dry and the jpgs (slightly enlarged and cropped) were taken and reposted with their description.

One obvious example

Purchase:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5149877920

Sale:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=50133&item=5154927506&rd=1

Others auctions are currently listed in which this also appears to be the case.

I'm not arguing that this practice is wrong or right.

But it might lead one to think that this shortcut also speaks to a bigger issue here.
