yep... he is buying up big 
i presume he is not part of the forum.. as he hasnt bought off any forum member ebay sales.. apart from a single purchase from gmanbc & johnorun last year
strange thing all his purchases are in the US & Canada even thou he is registered in France
and one of his first purchases in 2002 was off Genna... n it didnt go to well 
looks like he was a bad boy.. in his early days on ebay
so if he is on this forum.. he wont probably own up to being superfred

Well I just lost 6 auctions this morning to him and 5 previous auctions, and I wasn't exactly low ball bidding. I think I'll just go away and cry into my lunch....

yes the bidding lately on sort after chips has gone crazy.. just look at that MCS-4 set that finished this morning
for the past month i haven't even really bothered with auctions.. and just keeping my eyes open for cheap BINs.. but even they have got thin on the ground.

Sorry you lost to him, Smithy, but rest knowing that he is a formidable buyer of chips and other Electronic stuff.
I just researched him and it looks like he has spent Thousands of $$ on Ebay in just the month of March!
Price is no object to his DEEP pockets. 
However, I was happy to be on the receiving end of his generosity in a couple of Ebay transactions last year.

I also noticed that the high bidder of the MCS-4 set (r***r) has been buying up stuff extremely aggressively over the past months. He seems to go for the most rare and historically important items. Must have similarly deep pockets as superfred78  |
