The seller knows this is not a Pzazz original of Len Jewell but is still asking £650 for it on ebay! They do not state it's an original, but don't not say it isn't!! Is this type of vague negative description for a record asking price of £650 ok?

Item 176527872640

Looking for a mug I think!

Do you think this is fair practice?

No it’s not fair,and there is no way he can dress it up as such! He knows it’s not original cos how did he come up with a figure similar to an original!  Equally, anybody spending 650 quid should know what there looking for,and if unsure,get the seller to acknowledge its an original record on a message so you have something to offer PayPal for a refund!

I agree; it isn't fair. 

Some "mug", or unfortunate, enthusiasm filled individual will probably be parted with their cash. The issue is the sellers, not the unfortunate mug. Yes, people not in the know should check, but people are people. The seller should be reported.

Probably the best way to combat this ( if that's the right term) is to post an identical copy, with full description stating it's a Boot ,  complete with starting price of 0.99p , Let it run for 7 days & then refuse the winning bid if over £20. Instead of ripping off the innocent & purposely inflating prices , for no other reason than fraud .

Then post on the worldwide web so everyone's aware , not everyone's savvy .
