Hey guys/gals, Just got a Helm's Deep in. Ebay purchase for $104. Well guess who shipped me the item? That's right, TLG. Along with my free splinter keychain.... AND AN INVOICE FOR $129.99. Well I called them immediately and told them that I may have been involved in a drop ship scam. CS rep said nothing has been reported yet so don't worry about it. Which is frustrating because if this is a scam... someone is going to lose. Either TLG will have to eat the cost, or Visa/MC etx will have to eat this. But more importantly they will have to deal with another scam shipment because they're not following up. Anyway... should I just not worry about it? Or is there something else I need to do to protect myself?

Hi, just searched the forum and found this post which is very similar to my situation. I just received my eBay purchased today, it's shipped from Lego and now when I looked back on the original post, it had sacm written all over it. The seller posted the item was in Pennsylvania, and the buyer on the Lego invoice is in NY. I contacted Lego, the sales representative said it does look suspicious but said he can't do anything because their billing department did find anything wrong yet. And he wanted me to contact eBay and see what they say and call him back. So I tried to look for a way to report this to eBay but it always direct me to contact the seller first. What do I say to the seller??? What should I do at this point?? Is there a way to directly report to eBay? Thanks!!

It isn't so easy to find, but there is a contact phone number for eBay. You can talk directly to customer service, and they'll probably be able to help you out.
