It really is false advertising though, the headline states the tv.
That's so wrong.  :rolleyes

A misleading listing like that deserves to be reported, but try to do so and you're straight into Ebay's crappy drop down menu system that only lets you select completely inappropriate reasons for complaint.

I waded through the report menus and found an appropriate one - reported!

Mind you knowing ebay they'll ignore it and take their fees :(

Just goes to show that some people only read the title and not the advert, yes the seller is wrong for the article he is selling but the buyer obviously has not done his homework either.

Yes but as you scroll down through Item specifics and detailed item info, its all the TV details.
Then when you get to the bit the seller fills out, in small print, the first sentence says the bit about its not a tv and then theres a thousand word essay all about the TV.

Looking at the sellers feedback, apart from one negative, all looks good. I wonder if the accounts been hacked?

But she repeats the line about it not actually being the tv for sale many many times in that description.
If she knows what's going on then it's just cruel basically.

You may be right about the account being hacked....all previous sales have been pretty low value items.

Also odd that the feedback is supposedly 306 yet they actually only have 9 if you look at the feedback page

9 in the last 12months, 306 overall.

They are con-artists though and I did report this 'auction' earlier.
