    Anyone know this site?

    The site is not really ebay.co.uk, but rather groundrush.co.uk and then they are asking for your ebay account information.

    This is very suspect to being extreme fraud!

    I went to ebay.co.uk, and there is a product 6910036682 there, but you register through ebay, not trying to register through groundrush.co.uk

    Be careful when registering on sites!

    Re: For auction on eBay: Book Groundrush by Simon Jakeman ....

    www.groundrush.co.uk/eBay is a one-stop-shop URL for my eBay auctions of the book groundrush.

    It uses a meta refresh configured to load the current auction and not any of the older auctions.

    The meta refresh URL is within a hidden frame, therefore the eBay listing appears as www.groundrush.co.uk/eBay

    In view of your concern, I have added a time delay of 20 second to the meta refresh and a clickable URL to load the current auction outside of the hidden frames.

    There is no fraud intended.

    I hope this helps you to understand this set-up.

    Then it sounds like you are advertising on BLiNC then. Did you read the BLiNC rules? This is a free site to users, not to advertisers.

    Hi Mick,

    I have purchased from this site with no ill effects,
    the guy (who i won't name here) is as far as i can tell just letting the people who are interested know that the book is available.

    And i also might add, not at the stupid Amazon.com prices.

    If you have anything to do with book then I have no problem with price(or should I say reserve), but if you are person who bought these books with purpose to resell it and make profit then there's only one thought on my mind: buy, scan -> pdf spread, you should be ashamed to resell this book and make a profit especially on people who are into base. At least don't post this crap about starting price of 0.99$ here

    Re: For auction on eBay: Book Groundrush by Simon Jakeman ....

    looks like my hard back copy of Groundrush is worth keeping (seeing as I bought it for £5)...... the only bit of my BASE gear that gains value.......

    Also I am curious, who exactly is "chenrizig" and what is the reason you keep posting about this issue....................

    just curious on why you post under this name and not your other BLiNC user name. What do you get from the sale of these books? The rules do state about advertising on BLiNC
    .No advertising (without BLiNC Approval)
    I have a feeling that this is not just about helping people find a deal.
