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?

wow specializing on reselling lost shipments LOL that sounds very conspired!!

Let's say I'm either UPS or FedEx or any other shipping company guy and I can "lose" a couple of valuable shipments in favor of the company that buys them out. I wonder what they can offer for "lost" muscle cars?

@czarivey here’s the way it works. If you ship something and say have $1,000 insurance from Fedex and then they lose it, they pay off. You set the value, they pay it(after alot of fighting and arguing), in effect you sold it. 

I’ll take a guess that the OP underinsured his shipment and whatever he got paid for the gear didnt come close to making him whole.

What does "unresolved" mean? After 8 months if it was lost you should have been paid by now.

Did you ship a $50,000 amplifier to Europe without insurance?

This is possibly the most fascinating thread I've read here in a long time.

snook2 , please stay on this and keep us posted- and just a note to the other posters here, the OP posted this for a little advice-  don't do anything stupid or unsolicited like contacting the eBay seller to wag your finger or give them a piece of your mind or whatever.

Let snook2 work this out without interference.

It would be nice to get an update on whether or not Snook ended up getting any insurance at all on this when it originally went missing and did he get anything near the amps value. As my two cents goes, I think contacting the local Police Department where the eBay seller is located is probably the most prudent place to start. Someone posted that and the contact information somewhere near the top of the thread.

Again, this is pretty interesting.
