edit: Actually, I couldn't report it. The categories you can report an item for do not cover lying about the item.

If you really feel the need to be helpful to buyers who don't do their homework then contact the seller and advice him and show proof that his claim isn't true. |

Though frankly I'd have no problem crapping on any ebay auction I feel like... as the saying goes there is no such thing as bad publicity. |

850 seems steep for any pedal imo. Any ask the seller why they listed as only 50 made? Could be an honest mistake. You never know.

One who posts a deliberately provocative message to a newsgroup or message board with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument
Additionally
The ad hominem attck directed at me would have got him a 'written warning' if it was aimed at anyone but me, but I can take it.  |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2010 Location: Belton, Misery | | | Not trying to start a fight but Urban Dictionary is not exactly a good guide to anything. I get what you're saying, but I just don't understand the whole troll thing. When a new member starts a thread about an effect that has already been talked about, the standard response is "do a search" or something even ruder at times. Are these people subject to the same "troll" label. I'm asking because I'm curious and because I like talkbass but would feel more comfortable knowing what exactly is acceptable and why.
