To see the kind of damage this guy has done, follow this link to see all of the auctions tri-ball34 has won over the past 30 days:

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBidItems&userid=tri-ball34&completed=1&all=1&rows=50&sort=1&_rdc=1

Those sellers on the list have to report him to ebay, and together we may get his account revoked and your listing fees refunded.
