eBay scam

Taken down now!

WTF does that mean ?

No, just an invalid link - here is a valid one

Your options are to buy the glass for £13.92 OR to just buy a thin plastic screen protector film for 99p - this gives the listing the ability to list it as "From 99p" for this item.

This is a standard ebay scam. When they introduced the ability to have one listing with multiple options, which was intended for choosing colours and that kind of thing, the options can have different prices. When you sort by price, you sort by the lowest price. So of course all the scam artists advertise 'iphone 700 quid' and then have an 'option' of a screen protector at 99p. That results in a listing of 'iphone, from 99p'.

It's very tiresome. I don't know if there's a way to exclude listings with multiple options in searches, which would get rid of this game.

Just put a sensible price range in the filter. Anything that is too cheap is either crap, fake or a scam.

Yes, a bit like using that famous picture of the Space station with a grease gun floating away from an astronaut in the foreground and selling a similar grease gun. Brian
