Pack counterfeiter PASTONEY finally kicked off ebay!!!

Notorious vintage pack counterfeiter Pastoney out of Elizabethville, Pa--suburb of Harrisburg has finally been kicked off ebay. As you might remember last summer I exposed pastoney along with his other two ids (hunter17045) & (codyemma17)--both located in suburbs of Harrisburg as well. After sending Ebay incriminating evidence linking all three id's they chose only to naru the (hunter17045) at that time.

Since then pastoney has continued to sell bad packs under the pastoney id and has continued to buy vintage wrappers, singles, etc. under the (codyemma17) id. Frustrated I again sent ebay more irrefutable evidence linking (pastoney) with (codyemma17). And finally they acted. But again in their infinite wisdom they left the (codyemma17) id alone!

But on another related note I noticed that ebayer (tarheels17032) has been selling vintage raw wax packs for some time now and this person is located in Dauphin, Pa.--another suburb of Harrisburg, Pa. Ironically Dauphin is located right across the river just six miles north of Enola--the location of (hunter17045) and just ten miles south of Elizabethville--location of Pastoney. Also take notice of the numbers 17 in (tarheels17032) which also appears in Pastoney's other two id's--(codyemma17) & (hunter17045).

I might might be wrong but there appears to be some type of pack counterfeiting ring or one busy person operating in the Harrisburg, Pa. area.

***correction. In the original post I inadvertently typed (christinesauctioncloset) instead of (tarheels17032). It has been corrected.

What is with throwing a woman's name in the ebay id that gets these scammers off? Gary's had the name Stephanie in his store for a while.

Thank you very much "Summer". I read one of your other posts recently and appreciate that you have taken the time/effort to try and snuff out scammers in this industry. Even though this bad apple may have relocated, your altertness and proactivity at the very least disrupted his operations. Keep up the good work.

I think Gary has a new ID

Summer, have you considered learning Arabic and infiltrating Al-Qaeda sleeper cells in the US? I'm only half-way joking.

Your sleuthing is impressive.
