Try an eBay advanced search to look at all closed auctions from this seller in the last 30 days. They really do look like liquidators - tons of stuff, much of it at very low minimum bids. The strategy appears to be, "volume, volume, volume"! The thought of trying to manage an operation like that makes my head hurt! They also seem to have a substantial percentage of unhappy customers.

The sweet part about sellers like this is that one might, just might, pick up the occasional fantastic bargain - something truly valuable that simply never came to the attention of more than one knowledgeable buyer.
