"only Western Union Money Transfer(no COD , no Escrow , no Paypal..."
I'd def stay away from that, plus the guy has 0 feedback!
I know there are thousands of sketchy ebay auctions out there...
hoever this one caught my attention.
HERE
I wrote the guy and aked if I could come and check it out prior to bidding on it. I figured he lives in my area, since the item location said RIVER FALLS WISCONSIN.

I was thinking about reporting it...
or email all the other bidding with the info he gave me.,.

I think you can report him based if nothing else on the fact he offerd to sell it to you for $2999, there being no "buy it now" option on the auction. Now whether ebay will do anything...
A plasma TV with him on business to London, please!![]()

I went ahead and sent that into ebay. It will be taken down just for the fact that he doesn't accept anything but money transfer, and has 0 feedback.
looking out for the little people.......my Hero!!
seriously, props to you for taking time out of your schedule for reporting somthing suspicious. I would'nt have given it a secong glance (I would'nt have given it a first glance; 42'' flat screens are not excactly in my budget, but I sure as hell wish they were). very cool of you.
they made me laugh
