I did some checking and learned that, like the other Ebay scammer of the 1858 dime from yesterday, this guy also lives in Canada (nothing against Canadians!).

   Russ, I was in touch with the wininng bidder, who was smart enough to insist in an escrow account. Surprise, surprise, the seller wouldn't agree to it. Some "guy" did go ahead and open a new Ebay account, under which I, I mean he, sent the message I'd posted here previously, to all of the bidders - I, I mean he, couldn't…

    I have the following email all set to go out to the winning bidder and all other bidders as soon as the sale ends : Dear bidder, I sincerely hope this is not necessary.
