This is the bad publicity I was talking about earlier.

ebay is a little different to a regular store as they cannot be responsible for their sellers. When you kick them off they just come back under another name, no?

At least some people found out that some of these traders were fraud. It will be so sad to waste your time and your money with these people.. Isn't it?

The website doesn't work anymore I presume. I'm being redirected each time I want to visit it. How sad

I think everywhere has good and bad things. Just remember to check first wherever you buy things. There are always methods to find out if they are fraud or not. When I buy things on ebay, I check their customers' comments and how many time they alread trade. For diamonds, of course I won't buy from ebay, because diamonds involve too many aspects, such as clarity, cutting, weight, etc.
