He also uses misleading titles for his auctions (such as listing eight
magazine issues) and then in the body of the description mentions the
auction is only for one.

I was so frustrated with this guy that while the $1099 auction was still live, I put up an auction for an Altair Clone that looked exactly like his listing except in the title mine said "NOT RARE" and I priced it for $621. Mine sold after a couple of days and it was the very next day his sold for $1099. He contacted me about a month later to purchase another Altair Clone. I refused to sell him another Clone because I didn't want my product associated in any way with his business practices.
