The Tale of the Three Davids
SytnerAudi10
During his working day at Sytner Audi in Huddersfield, David sometimes finds himself a feeling a little bored. To pass the time away, he sells things on eBay Tidy_shopper ebay seller feedback David enjoys eBay so much that he has another eBay account at his home near Sheffield. Millicent_bystander25 ebay seller feedback B12VEE Is a fine upstanding member of the Rover 75 and MG Owners Club. He simply loves to help out others, just such an example can be found here However something about reading through B12VEE posts gave me a touch of dejavu. It was troubling me so I thought I'd dig a little more, then it struck me it was something about how he phrased technical questions Please note how the word “opinion” is spelled in this post here But why does that have any relevance?, well how about checking the spelling of the same word by the member SytnerAudi10 here Hmm, so here we have two members with peculiar spelling mistakes, both members are called David, and both live in the same sort of geographic area. Ahh, this surely must be a coincidence I think, but no here we have a third member v192mak who has a similar approach to spelling the same word as can be seen here So what is this third member called……..David?....yes you’ve guessed correctly. No that is still a coincidence isn’t it? I decided to have a look at some more of B12VEE’s posts, and realise he has a little difficulty with homophones, words that sound the same, but that are spelled differently. An example can be found here But lots of people have difficulty with homophones, SytnerAudi10 for instance here And similarly v192mak here If you think that is coincidental, you are probably "way off base" as another member on here said to me recently. I mean there must be a lot of people called David, who live in the same area and also own a T4 diagnostic machine, and some can even carry out tasks such as this So there you have it the stories of “The Three Davids” I hope you've enjoyed my little tale Brian |

Good bit of detective work there!
Looks like SytnerAudi10 was an eBay member but no longer, so possibly opened a new account under tidy_shopper: http://feedback.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI...ab=AllFeedback

Or maybe not, as 'millicent_bystander25' bought something from 'SytnerAudi10' according to the feedback 4th from bottom?:
http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayIS...0&mPg=8&page=3 So selling stuff to himself or is there more than more person here? Just interested as I bought something from one of these parties but the transaction was all OK. EDIT: PM incoming....
