I *think* another of his ebay IDs was 'vintagesouth' located in Humboldt TN, just looked it up but the feedback profile is set to private so I was unable to confirm.
Had a number of so-called L78 and DZ blocks listed a year or two ago, never showed close-ups of the pad stamps (just out-of-focus shots), and wouldn't provide better pics on request.

Reminds me of the vintage slotcar race set I sold on eBay.
Buyer returned it to me for a full refund saying it was incomplete,which it wasn't,as he took the missing parts out that he needed for the identical race set he already had at home waiting.He claimed the set I sent him didn't have em.
He would've gotten away with had I not taken multiple date stamped photos of me packing his race set in full detail.
eBay sided with me in the long run and sent me my money back to me again,and told me to keep the now missing parts race set,(buyer wouldn't accept it),& banned the buyer for good.Turned out he had a series of complaints against him like this.
I now always document EVERYTHING I send out with a date stamp on the photos as well as a photo of me handing the shipper the package,along with the tracking #,incase a scumbag buyer trys to pull this again.

Looks like he used an adjustable wrench or a hammer to break out part of the air horn.

What a low life. It is a shame that there are people like this, as it ruins the hobby for some and affects us all.

Default EBay Scammer Buddy Hill Humbolt TN

He goes by Buddy Hill as well, with multiple eBay accounts as stated in this thread
I'm afraid I was scammed as well and need to find out the statute of limitations in TN
I bought a few things from him a couple of years ago that I believe are restamps

Unfortunately, eBay seems to ignore that statement, and generally sides with the buyer. A couple of years ago, I sold an electronic item in good working condition, listed 'as-is' and 'no returns accepted'. The buyer left me positive feedback and sent me a message stating he was delighted with the item.
About a month later he opened an eBay dispute, requesting a refund on the basis the item was not as described. Despite evidence that it worked upon receipt (buyer's message and feedback), and the time since safe delivery, eBay sided with the guy and automatically refunded his payment through PayPal - effectively an account charge-back without me having accepted it.

Ebay will not stand with you even when you specify no returns. Had a beautiful pair of NOS 1969 Camaro quarter louver trim pieces still packaged in old GM boxes with original bagged sealant nuts that I sold a lowlife scammer. He said they did not meet his criteria for mint. Disputed me, reported me, and Ebay refunded him from my Paypal account without my approval. I finally got them back and the original GM boxes were trashed. I filed a complaint to no success. I did finally sell them privately to an individual that thought they were perfect. Scammers suck.
