I've heard some very bad things about him. Just search the forum for "RetroGeek", "DoomMaster" or "Doomy" and you will find them.

Personally I would avoid him.

His feedback says enough.

Amazingly his auctions still generate many bids.  Can there be that many Amiga users oblivious of his reputation?

Yes, unfortunately the nature of the world as we know it means that there must, at any time, be at least a handful of new lambs available for the wolf.

I'd rather shoot my foot whilst singin' MMMBop with long blond hair in front of a bunch of Chavs.

OMG, I would never buy or sell to him. His excuses are ridiculous. "Buyer did not ask", Hey it´s the sellers responsibility to describe the item correctly otherwise you can put up an ad saying: "Send money here, but I will not tell you why".

Avoid at all cost, there is enough Amigastuff out there from honest sellers.

Maybe you could ask him if it is Mil spec in the questions though, it would give us all a good laugh  :lol:

you dont need to ask us read his feedback. there are probably worse on ebay, but not many.
there was one were he sold a pal amiga to somebody in the states and shot them down saying they should have asked.
someone in the states selling an amiga in the states to someone else in the states and he is suprised that they are upset that it is pal. yeah thats what i always expect.

i was going to ask him a million questions about stuff even if i dont care about the item just to piss him off. then say from his feedback i thought i should ask.

He tells us the weight of the box so we can oursselves figure out the shipping cost. I guess he doesn't know how to put a shipping calculator on his auctions. And, then there's that 500 point font and a 2 mile long paragraph. He hasn't learned about bulleted lists, I guess. Not like eBay doesn't have an icon in the auction builder wizard you have to use that does them for you. Then again, it's the same exact auction format he's been using so he just selects the old template and changes the text.  Grrr. If you guys stop talkoing about that guy I can stop writing 2 mile long paragraphs about his lame-itude. :-P

@therail

So is that evidence that he's a chick, as proposed by someone long ago? Or am I thinking about someone else?

@weirdami
If he was a chick, why would he choose to use a picture of that ugly tw*t on his auctions?
