an eBay seller (Code, Camey & Assoc., codecamey.com) listed the
following item on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=290174749827

if this product is purchased for an average size roof, one needs to
order around 30 boxes (~ $3,300). PayPal covers only $200 of this
purchase.

Then, tell the seller to run a "Dutch" auction.


I have already gone through the bidding process w/ him once before and
the seller added the price for accessories to the final eBay purchase
price and then demanded WU/bank draft for the entire purchase to
proceed w/ shipping. Credit cards not accepted. Any other mode of
payment is fine for as long as the money is in his bank before him
shipping the product.

You should've sent eBay a copy of this along with full headers. You
wouldn't be worrying about trying to deal with this seller which is
undoubtly trying to circumvent fees. They would be NARU'ed by now. They
also are not allowed to display the Paypal logo, without accepting it.

Any ideas how to go about this?

Yes, get a clue b/4 trying to make a big purchase on eBay. Try getting some
eBay experience buying smaller items, b/4 jumping in over your idiotic
head.
