I can't fill a dispute or whatever because it's still within delivery estimates (late March to mid may, roughly 2 month). Wide delivery estimates are normal from china.
Perhaps it's coming through Russia 😂 (Russian Post is helluva slow)

Hahaha, I guess the real owner of the account doesn't even know what's going on, until being contacted by eBay and local police. Poor guy.

Dear Board,
I went for the 12 rolls of Fuji C200 for $ 12.88 and there are still 2 weeks left until the arrival time window is closed.
If nothing shows I'll cancel the transaction and chalk it up as furtherance of the no free lunch lesson.
The only thing that sucks is that I have purchased a number of low cost items from Chinese sellers and this is the first time I have ever had an issue with any of the purchases. I've bought lens caps and hoods, camera straps and hand grips and have been pleased with everything thus far. This time I went for 2 cheap deals on film and it looks like neither of them are real deals?
I guess I'll stick to reputable sellers of film going forward.
Regards,

Small hardware such as lens caps, hoods, ear wax pick, etc. can be shipped with "Small Air Package" from China to overseas. It is slow but very cheap, as we all have benefited from. When the size of the package goes up, the shipping fee for it rushes up tremendously in a non-linear way. It is impossible to fit 10 rolls of films into these Small Package, and the shipping fee for them would be more than the listed prices alone. I mean it is a dead giveaway that those deals are fake..

$12.88 is hardly free lunch ...

No films, no reaction to messages, opened case, got money back via PayPal.
Other transactions I made with Chinese sellers went fine, good contact, shipping with tracking.

Got my refund back too. Had to wait until after May 5.
I did buy me a 5 pack of Fujifilm 160 in 220 for a good price. Fresh and now in the freezer.

Just refunded today. Ain't seeing 2004 discounted prices anymore.
The 160 220 was going for $65 which is a great price. Basically twice 120 which is right to the format.
Weep a bit, by writing I realised no more super cheap film or 220 any soon.

Yeah, I got the refund too.
I don't understand scams like this. Do they treat it like short term loans
without interest?

No. They steal it. They take the money out of the account and disappear and eBay or Paypal eats the cost. It's basic fraud

This was from someone who had some fresh Fujifilm 160 in 220 size. Offered $55 and got one box. Looks like the seller removed the make an offer, but still has some boxes left.
