I do know the auction end date, it was just under 4 weeks ago,, I do have the item # etc but there has to be a reason that its not showing up to you as well as others, like I said I see it just fine.
I will not be giving the item #, most people know me and my user ID and the sellers too.
My recomendation would be to contact eBay and ask them all and or any questions concerning it not showing up?

Oh smarty marty,

You are so full of drama. The way I see it, you're in on the ruse.... Otherwise you would have no problem giving up the auction number (if there really was one to begin with)....

Good night old pal, We both know what is what here, don't we??

I have to agree with this, something does smell a little "fishy" here. You cut/pasted most of the [supposed] eBAY auction material, yet you didn't post the auction number; and when repeatedly asked for the auction number, you have been ignoring those requests. What's the deal?

And another thing

Post by NJ1K »

I also noticed there is NO feeback pertaining to this "supposed" transaction on either KD6SBR's ebay feedback listings and as well, there is no feedback on Martyn's ebay feedback page either.

As a matter of fact, I didn't see any dealings on the feedback pages of these two with each other at any time.

So, who is fooling who here??

I intend like I have mentioned to persue this to the full extent of the law in every way so this crook cannot do this to anyone else.
OK, so something doesn't make sense here.

If this entire transaction was a hoax, then why is Martyn out $2800?
If only the Zed post was a hoax to cover fraud, why isn't there evidence on eBay of the transaction that allegedly cost Martyn $2800?
And if Martyn was defrauded, why hasn't his lawyer contacted the Zed with a formal request for documentation of the thread from backups, for use as evidence in further legal inquiries?

I'm not trying to cast stones here... and I can easily believe that the now deleted thread, in and of itself, was fraudulent, as it did not pass the smell test on several levels. But this whole thing doesn't make any sense from one end to the other.

Wow, Martyn, all I can say is this is not looking good for your credibility!

I, being someone who thinks you're of decent character, am starting to reconsider my perception of you.

ALL you were asked for was the simple eBAY item number and you gladly posted the text from said auction,
yet continue to avoid the ITEM NUMBER questions.

You are starting to look bad here... I hope I am wrong.

73,

hihi I find it amusing that it seems eBay has pulled the listing, I find it amusing that there are so many interested parties wanting to know others business,

State trooper Collins i am shure finds it unusual that no one has contacted him regarding this as there seems to be so much interest in this transaction.

As it is a criminal case Rich surely you don’t expect me to comment do you?

Maybe you should ask the other party involved? Or Trooper Collins? You never know they may wish to answer you or anyone else’s questions but I for one will not be answering it despite it being a simple request and if the fact I chose not to answer your question makes me a bad person then I am sorry to see you have an odd outlook of me.


I have provided the State Police details and recommend you contact them.
I have been asked not to comment and that’s exactly what I will be doing regarding this case.

Since when have Police departments started giving information to those that are not envolved with the case.

They do not give such information to the general public.

I will quote you Larry as your exactly right.

There is a good reason for this and I am following in their footsteps.

What annoys me is the ones who think my non disclosure is a shady thing, nope just pure common sence.

When they are out of pocket $2800 and post something on a forum when a police investigation is under way try asking them a similar question and see what responce they give you.

EXACTLY!

So why should Martyn give the information here?


It is no-ones business but K4TEC and KD6SBR

Well, since you asked...

KD6SBR made it, if not everyone's business, certainly a matter of public interest when he create the (now deleted) thread over on QRZ.COM. He made it other's business when he invited comments to his original complaint, and then replied to them.

One can not unscramble this egg.

As someone who commented in that (now deleted) thread, I for one have an interest. I'm not asking for a legal blow-by-blow with irrefutable legal evidence. I just want to know if someone tried to snooker us.

Despite the less than savory reputation that Martyn has acquired in many circles, due to many complaints against him & his business practices -- and I am not saying that all is fair, mind you, nor that these complaints and allegations are or are not neccesarily true & accurate -- I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.

As I said before, the whole thing doesn't pass the smell test. The original thread, the comments about who was emailing whom and demanding what, the allegations of a relative in law enforcement in another state, the type of item allegedly delivered, the disappearance of the eBay listing without a trace... it just doesn't add up.

The Ebay transaction number for this auction was 120764451979

If you type this number into the Ebay search bar, you should be able to see the auction listing that ended on Aug. 16. I remember seeing this auction around the time that it first appeared. The auction might not appear during other means of searching as it is older than 15 days. Martyn can still easily locate the auction because it is saved in his personal Ebay transaction pages, which I think are retained, on Ebay, for 60 days.

Now we're getting somewhere...

It's a matter of he-said, he said in who scammed who at this point.
