Saw this add and thought it was too good to be true. Then I looked at some of the sellers other listings--some high end bikes, with 1000Euro buy it now.
What do you think? Stolen, Scam or great deal

. . . That's the usual giveaway for a scammer. But he's got so much stuff listed--over 1400 items--that if he's a scammer you've still got to admire the work he put into getting all this stuff listed.

I was going to stay far away from him. Then I saw the accordion . . . :rolleyes:

Ebay has started to remove the bike auctions. I suspect somebody had their user-id hijacked.

The listing is not available anymore.

The way i understood those scams were that they hack an ebay users account and then put a different email in the actual add then listed for the ebayuser.

So as a buyer you think you r buying from the 100%feedback powerseller but your obviously not.

In sure theres more ways to scam like that.
I would stay far away from it anyways.
