I would guess these sellers are all pseudonyms for the
same person. I wouldn't touch them is used. If new, I would
be careful how I paid.

Basically, you have a significant chance of fraud.
Is the savings worth the hassle and possible loss? That is
a personal decision.

Also they seem to be ending (meaning they were listed) within minutes of

I have noticed a large number of Gaggia machines offered on ebay over
the last few days. They all seem to be offered by a few sellers who
have been members of ebay for just a few days. They all have zero
feedback. The sellers claim to be located in PA, WI, IN and CA. Their
names are strange: sybosyl, dyvab, hitarav, wevedyd, nixenyf.
(Are these sellers on this list to defend themselves?)

Of course these are warning signs of potential fraud. But the prices
on their machines may be lower because of their lack of feedback and
the oversupply of machines they listed simultaneously. Would you take
a risk here? I've read about buyer protection on the ebay site. But
how does it work in practice?

Your thoughts please.
Thanks,
