Beedster Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Ah the Scottish Highlands, a geographical area recognised for the highest rate of Wal ownership per head of population worldwide. I must buy this one, I see no risks whatsoever Why have eBay not removed it, I assume the guy that made the final listing you linked must have reported it?

bassaussie Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Pretty cool of the true owner to create that listing. Beedster makes a good point - why is the original listing still up when the actual owner has highlighted it's a scam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
