This is a live screen recording of actual events on the ebay website, with altered vocals. The video portion is uncut with watermarks added, and otherwise unretouched.
The vocal audio portion of this video is my opinion, based upon & validated by the facts.

Now finding more PROOF that these padded listings began as early as 02-22-2008
Seller: eBay_Seller_sdc_prod_409455_97
seller list Items 69 still viewable,(although they come back invalid) show as starting on 2-22

Here we see sdc_prod_310426, with 160 items still viewable (although they come back invalid)
Note the dates they started show as February 20th

Here we look at the recent reports of fake items still rolling in to the ebay site.
To get the gist, let me quote someone else's suggestion:
"Go to about any category and list by Ending Soonest. Go to the bottom of the page and enter the last page number in the area to the right and you will most likely find some still listed."

Also these other related stories are still there, with comments mentioning this as well.

    Didn't know about the 2 lawsuits...feebay better be prepared for more! Don't you just love how they are offering the .01 listings but ONLY if your dsr's are 4.7 and above...WHAT A JOKE!

  • Please NOTE....

    Ebay Sellers and Buyers, banding together to Strike/Boycott Ebay's new fees and policy changes have decided to add a few large companies to our list to BOYCOTT. These companies either currently sell DIRECTLY on Ebay or they are Ebay shareholders!!! Ebay may wish to play deaf......but large companies with better leadership will not be so foolish!

    MAKE NOISE!

    Boycott the following...........

    Sears

    General Motors

    PLEASE LET US KNOW OF ANY OTHERS?
