SCAM ALERT -

Be aware a group of about 6 different eBay user names all with (0) zero sales are selling items in the InvesTool listings but selling the same items over and over.  I think they are running a scam operation.  I recommend that you do not buy from someone with (0) zero sales record or foreign countries with low sales counts.  Be aware that many foreign sellers with (0) zero or low sales counts are scams or selling black market copies of the product your bidding on.  Protect yourself - email the seller BEFORE bidding on the item and ask if the product is an original or copy.  If much money is involved get an agreement from the seller on using escrow.com to complete the sale or have the product sent to you UPS COD.  If seller does not answer or does not agree to these terms then buyer beware - good chance you are going to get scammed.
