It turns out that the musty rudguard fellow has been giving similar threats to eBay sellers.
So this is a public information announcement.
If you find yourself in a transaction with someone whose eBay user name is: martynparkes
Then you'd do wise to steer clear. He'll probably hurt your eBay reputation and start doling out the threats. Life is easier without this hassle, so just don't deal with him.
From that eBay username, we could reasonably assume that his name is Martyn Parkes. It may not be, but I'm fairly sure he's not imaginative enough to have used an alias that sounds so plausibly like a real name.
So if you find yourself in a transaction with Martyn Parkes... caveat emptor, as the guy is quite aggressive and also does not know his stuff.
Is this where the more we write Martyn Parkes the higher up the google ranks it gets?
