What happened?
Item misrepresentation.
eLu offered a worthless Dota item to me and hugely inflated its value.

If the first line is true, then his second line makes no sense.
He was also referring to his friend who is experienced with Dota things (JaNi) and has the 535 hours in Dota 2 show for it. He backed up eLu's story and backpedaled when let through that I knew that the item is actually worthless.

The item in question: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Jonathannorman11/inventory/#570_2_7396051291 (Genuine Weather Snow)

Proof of worth of the item:

Spoiler

A simple google search, https://www.google.de/search?hl=en&q=genuine+weather+snow+dota+worth , shows these results:

@advicebanana

Thank you for this report.

Unfortunately, we feel that this report falls under more of sharking than item misrepresentation, which we do not handle at FoG.

We will suggest you to 'forward' this report to the Harpoon Gaming community, who does handle sharking reports: http://forum.harpoongaming.com/forms/report-form.16/respond

Archiving.
