I had been saving up for a few months for a chunk of hard drive storage to startup a new home based business. I found a good deal on ebay
I won the auction and sent payment in the form of a postal money order to his reblproductions office in Columbus. This was back in September, I've been getting the run around since. I've done a bit of research and here's what I've found.
Mr. Popich was using multiple ebay accounts
Doing some research on the second account I came across this dispute for a good chunk of currency

Doing a search for William Popich at the Franklin county courthouse (http://www.fcmcclerk.com/) Turns up
loads of small claim cases, a couple are still open.
And I found a news report regarding construction fraud as well (http://www.nbc4i.com/news/8391716/detail.html? Rss=col&psp=news)
It should be noted that I was instructed to send payment to a William Povich not Popich. And it was cashed by a Bill Popich.
Also - just last week he sent me a package containing cables for this hard drive but not the drive itself, the box was labeled as "LaCie Hard drive" with a value of 699USD. He claims that this is part 1 of a two partpackage he's mailed to me. But cannot provide me with a tracking number.
