Grrrrrrrrrr, thanks for the help but jeeze 4:39 in the morning.....I never knew that the ebay live chat people could do that."

This boggles my mind. The chat staff can do that??? Hope those folks are more honest than they are sharp.

And what's with these scammers in Africa? Do they think we were all born yesterday? How many suckers can they possibly find? Are one or two easy marks worth going through all the effort to place bids and send out customized emails to all the sellers? Doesn't make sense.
