BUYERS BEWARE.

I JUST HAD A VISIT WITH A FRIEND WHO TRAVELS TO THE ORIENT, MOST OFTEN CHINA.

I SAT, OPENED MOUTHED, AND LISTENED TO HIS TALE OF A GROUP OF YOUNG CHINESE BUISNESS MEN,AND WOMEN, WHO SET UP E-BAY ACCOUNTS AND THEN "BUY" ITEMS FROM EACH OTHER,CLOTHES, SHOES, COINS, ECT., TO BUILD UP A HIGH RANKING OF POSITIVE FEED-BACK.

THE ONLY THING IS, THEY NEVER BUY A THING! JUST POST, " SELL ", AND LEAVE EACH OTHER FEED-BACK.

NOT A CENT IS COLLECTED OR SENT.

 THEN THEY SELL FAKE COINS AND JEWELRY TO OTHER COUNTRIES FOR LOW BID WINS AND HIGH SHIPPING PRICES.

WHEN THE POOR SAP GETS HIS STUFF AND FINDS IT IS FAKE, HE WILL ASK FOR A REFUND, WHICH THEY GLADLY CREDIT - BUT, THE OVER THE TOP SHIPPING CHARGE IS NOT REFUNDED AND THE CUSTOMER IS OUT $ 30, 40, 50 BUCKS!

THIS GROUP OF UPSTARTS LAUGHED AS THE TOLD MY FRIEND THEIR STORY!

THEIR HERO... W.C. FIELDS - " A SUCKER IS BORN EVERY SECOND".

WATCH YOURSELVES WITH OVER SEAS SELLERS.

MY FRIEND IS CHINESE \ AMERICAN, AND SO WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN THIS INFORMATION WITH TRUST.

BUT HE LOVES AMERICA AND HIS BUDDIES HERE AT HOME.

I FOR ONE AM GLAD!
