You can see there's no serial just from the picture above.

Yeah, you're right. I think I can see something there but it's clearly been altered.

There's a tiny bit of discolouration in the cardboard in the original pic, but it's probably just the difference in lighting due to it not being a smooth surface. There is no serial number there at all, he's added it.

Also most original psikyo serials are written in pencil so it's very easy to change it and take the picture with the flash on, it was harder when he changed the box he had with Tenchi wo Kurau II (which was the wrong box anyway because they originally came in a Capcom "Dash" box) to Daimakaimura because taking the sticker type serial off the bad box and reapplying it to the better box would been hard in its self.

he will of taken the picture of the Daimakaimura serial on it's original box and then made it out to be complete kit but he even said on here that he had swapped the box serials from one to another but stills forgets to put it in his listing http://page18.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w80408347" :(

Yeah, I often forget really important details regarding authenticity when I sell stuff for nearly £800 :roll:

I think he should have been banned long ago anyway, even before this deception became apparent.

The whole buying items from YAJ and then reselling them on here for mega profit alone was enough. It was even worse when he had actually outbid a fellow AO member here who was already bidding on a YAJ item, only for them to see it for sale at a massively inflated price in one of his posts here a couple of weeks later. It's just downright insulting.

I appreciate that business is business, and he is free to buy and sell on what pleases in that respect, but doing what he did on here was hardly in community spirit, was it? :eh:

I think he should be banned here because he's clearly untrustworthy and taking people for a ride. It's pretty irrelevant if he's running a business, if anything it makes it worse because he's not a one off chancer, he's making a living out of it. Ultimately though there are a lot more unsuspecting people he can rip off even without this site. Have his shenanigans been discussed on other sites? If not, people should know, they can make their own mind up after they have the facts. He's not actually denied any of it has he?

If you ban him, you need to blacklist his site as well, make him completely persona non grata as a untrustworthy individual.

For the record, I emailed Stv about this. He denies adding the serial and says it's just not visible in the auction picture but has no interest in arguing his case here any more.

His selling practices are still angering a lot of members either way so I have removed his marketplace access by popular demand. There's nothing I can do about his shop or YJ bidding obviously.

Ugh, would hate to be lynched by any forum for wrong doings.. good job Geezer is too smart to get caught.. Been scamming you mofo's for years - yet you still come back for more.. :awe:

Ok, so the above statement is a joke - if I've diddled anyone then I'd probably cry into my cornflakes.

Guess I'll have to actually set-up a proxy account now... :wtf:
I was happy to buy **** off him 'cause it was quick, easy and stress-free. I could care less if he was making money off his auction winnings (insert business is business statement here).

I've bought from him a couple times at market values, which was fine for me, but forgeries are forgeries. I cannot condone that.

I've put bids in on like, 5 non-G-front Progears by now, and STV has bought every single one by increment bidding. How many does he **** need?
