Another power seller i-tekuk seems to be offering 16GB Kingston DataTraveler Pen drives at BIN £17.99
History says 29 sold… Toolhaus.org shows some Negs but against private listings

Hi Micro,
Maybe this link will help people get there quicker. Private listings are often used to hide sales of counterfeit and fake capacity flash items. Are people catching on and reporting? The buyer ID’s are not hidden, so for those who wish to join the fight, contact those who left negatives and find out what is so private the seller wants it hidden from us.

I asked the seller WHY PRIVATE listing we’ll see what reply I get.
By the way the new eBay buyers item page does not seem to display prominently the PRIVATE LISTING as the old one did, unless this is a quirk of my system, or maybe others have something to hide TOO?

Another one to watch jpsupplies-uk sold 8 out of 18 listed of the most familiar 16GB silver with black leather inlay USB stick.

I guess there will be EIGHT more disappointed buyers soon.
The excrement should be hitting the fan by now.
This supplier previously tried to sell fake blu-ray discs, but withdrew them once told.

Moving down a level 8GB Kingston Data Traveler Flash drives
I notice what seems to be an upsurge in these being auctioned by miss_accessorries & shumaxx
The price is closer to reality but there are similar looking ones being sold in the far east.
This seller seems to have passed off 2 units, with one to go

I wonder if miss_accessorries is trying to tell potential buyers their fortune (Sorries?)

Three more Kingston Travelers, one looks like it might be genuine, but why private listing?
