I think this guy lists items he doesn't even have and at high prices.
If it sells, he buys it (like from an auction) then sells it to you at a profit.
If it sells and he CAN'T get the item (e.g. he gets outbid) he justs refunds you and probably tells you there was an error and the item is not in stock.
Here's my example:
His ebay listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/METAL-GEAR-SOLID-2- ... dZViewItem
A current yahoo japan auction:
http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m59790627
So basically if he sees something on yahoo japan that might fetch a pretty penny on ebay he lists it at a crazy price on ebay (the listing costs pennies) to see if he can sell it. I do NOT believe it's the same person on ebay and yahoo japan because shin092922 has sold many items on yahoo and this is the first time I've seen something of his listed on ebay. I don't think there's anything wrong at all with what he's doing, I just want to save you guys from bidding on his items. Why? because either he may not have items in stock and you might get burned, or you might be able to get it cheaper from whatever/whoever his source is.
