Dodgy Bristol Bongo seller

Fellow Bongo fans.The dodgy Bristol Bongo seller seller is in action once again under the ebay name of khkuk1 .He has a van up for sale now with eight hours to go.
I have just contacted ebay and reported him for having friends bidding against genuine people and having his feedback falsely inflated by friends too.

If you are of a mind to help a fellow Bongonaut please report him to ebay too.It only takes a couple of minutes and you really will be doing some innocent person a good stroke.Thanks.

That's right, all the petrol Bongos are rear wheel drive.

Why on earth does he always stick massive reflectors on the sides
That other one he has for sale at the mo has huge orange reflectors on side looks bloody stupid

so he knows the vans to avoid when buying?

It must be hard work finding that amount of dodgy vehicles

The reflectors and random decals and stick-on trim can only be there to hide some rust or other defects. Sometimes, they are only stuck on one side of the van. Sometimes he uses red reflective triangles (like you'd use on rear of a trailer) on the side of the which is at best dangerous, and at worst possibly illegal. If you're going to tart something up you need to at least make the effort to cover your tracks neatly and consistently.

He must have a batch at the moment as he is banging them out everyday at the minute.
I have reported every one but ebay only has a few people to take action so the more reports the merrier.
Thanks to those that have contacted ebay.
Someone must know his address in Fishponds???

ebay record his change of user id as:

The box below contains the User IDs that this member has used on eBay.

User ID / Effective Date / End Date
khkuk1 / 28-Jan-15 / Present
mctdirect / 16-Sep-13 / 28-Jan-15

.... and today's van looks very tidy for just £255 at the moment.
Given he is selling something most of the time, he should have some feedback for the last month. Also he has not given feedback for yonks. I wonder if the feedback mechanism is easily skipped over because he is not taking payments through ebay.
