Ebay selling my missing amplifier


8 months ago I sent an amplifier to europe for upgrades. The amp went missing and there were investigations that went unresolved. I happened to be searching on ebay and noticed the amp and when I magnified it Bingo the serial number was same. It is an ebay seller store that is listing it. Ebay has not yet responded after several attempts. What next?

Is it the Dartzeel being sold by CargoLargo for $14,999? I rode up the chairlift in Utah couple years ago with a guy who ran eBay’s fraud division.  They have a whole team based in Salt Lake dealing with fraud.  Counterfeiting, fake offers, stolen goods for sale etc. IF you could ever track that team down by phone you might be able to make some progress.

Have you filed insurance claim on your homeowners policy for stolen goods? Insurance investigator would track it down and bust the culprit since you’ve located the property. 

Was it sent back to Dartzeel in Geneva for repair? Sounds like lifted from their shop. Have you contacted the repair shop again? Hey dude I found my f******* amp!! Stolen from your shop! I’m not a conspiracy theorist but maybe they were in on it.  

my man, @snook2,  you can have direct phone contact with ebay personnel, including phone contact. report is not good enough. you have to agitate up the chain of responsibility. im so sorry. that sucks. good luck. 

If it is the one from Cargo Largo, I would contact the police in Independence, Missouri USA. Ask for their Detective division.

Tell them they are selling your amp and you have paperwork to prove it.

Cargo Largo resells equipment on consignment so your amp probably is not there. Tell the police you would expect Cargo Largo to purchase the amp from the person selling it and ship it to you, since Cargo Largo is selling a stolen item.

Good luck, tuff spot your in. You can try the police in the town where your amp is being sold. Hopefully you have all doc’s related to shipping and ownership to challenge them with. Someone mentioned insurance, If a claim was paid somebody might want to reclaim their loss. 15,000 is a lot of loss. Hope for the best once again GOOD LUCK P.S Check with U.S. POSTAL INSPECTORS they have wide jurisdiction and powers overseas with mail theft

Just curious.  Did you send it to the original manufacturer?  I appreciate the concise OP but this is an interesting issue and would love some of the details.  That is a boutique manufacturer that I think only sells a few hundred of each unit for stratospheric pricing
