We need to stop this loser. S/he is selling 337 items! Is there a way to report the seller, instead of item by item?

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewSellersOtherItems&userid=costanso&include=0&since=-1&sort=3&rows=50

He sold POSITIVE FEEDBACK for $1.00 to pump up his positive feedbacks. See his/her previous auction:

"HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO INCREASE YOUR EBAY FEEDBACK PROFILE. JUST PAY ME $1.00 IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE AUCTION THROUGH PAYPAL AND LEAVE ME A POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND I WILL DO THE SAME THING TO YOU. "

You can still see the auctions he ran even after someone left him feedback. Most knoledgeable people on ebay won't fall for his scam.

His Matrix's auctions vanish in less than 6 hours!! What's happen? My impression is that eBay is often pretty slow in removing illegal auction.

Not good. I checked again, and found this seller still have 117 items on sell. Funny, it dropped from 337 to 117. I wonder why.

He just relists the auctions, he has been reported again, here is how I do it. He WILL be kicked off Ebay soon.

yeah, he has 1144 items right now. The more people that report him, the faster he will be gone.

Outrage! He has 1133 now. I wonder if 10 buyers has already bought this useless information? I hope not :(

It seems that this person is relisting very fast, because eBay only cancel his/her illegal items, but still keep his ebay ID. If I remember correctly, Ebay has this 3 strikes rule. If you break the rule 3 times, you ID will be canceled! That will be a more effective way to block the seller, I think.
