[QUOTE=S2Kguy,Mar 28 2006, 09:02 AM] Sports Car

A sports car is type of automobile designed for sporting performance. While opinions differ as to the exact definition, most sports cars have two seats and two doors, and are designed to excel at a combination of acceleration, top speed, braking, and maneuverability. Great emphasis is often placed on handling

Whoever wins wont pay im sure. It's so obvious it will just end up like some of those other popular auctions that get bidded really high and then get cancelled by ebay (one nascar driver helmet got bidded up to like 3 million dollars by some 14 yr. old kids haha)

one other thing i just noticed is that she states that if the auction goes over $1000 shipping is free. Why would she make it free shipping at $1000 if the car was worth..... lets say $10,000.

So by yesterday at 9:56am PST, joeiroc (31) bid $9,000. Then with three bids over three minutes, new member brianc3089 (0) with zero feedback at all increased it to $11,000.

Isn't that obviously a fraudulent account meant to drive up the price?

So she can recoup the shipping cost. I don't think she cares if she makes any money from this.

No, I think you've got it backwards; remember, her EX HUSBAND, not HER, bought the car originally. So every bit of money is pure profit for her. Therefore, free shipping doesn't mean that much to her, because whether she makes $9k or $10k, it's all free money.
