Yes, a couple dozen things without issue. At worst, you get creepy strangers in your house try to talk you downs to Free.


So what's the rest of the scam?
The rest of the scam is that the cashiers check is fake, the bank clears it but 2 weeks later they stick you with the bill.

Maybe it just happens on newyork.craigslist.org but all I get is scammers, whether I try to sell my car or subs.. Same 'ol scammers.

why did you even make a thread about this.....?
WOW... I can see someone saying this that is a newbie, but being 2yrs on here and a Community Organizer is just suprising. Its pretty obvious, its to give us a heads up on sellers like this. Especially, if someone on this board is interested in purchasing those particular seats.
Must be an off day huh Enthralled... I understand, we all have those moments..
Thanks for the heads up General Kratos...

We all should message the seller, and just tell his ass to use his own pictures and stop scamming...Unless that is a bad idea

Maybe best to contact ebay first so he doesn't end the auction early and closes a sale?
Opinions?

The Car pictured is clearly a MY2000 with the Carpeted tunnel. He lists the seats as 2005.

The owner should contact Ebay admin and get the sale closed. Ebay can then lock the seller from being able to list anything else. That is a good idea to tell the guy off though. That would really freak him out I bet.

. I thought the same thing when I did it.... Yea, havent done anything unless whatever the OP wants us to do. I hate ppl/sellers like this. They make us lose trust of buying larger/more expensive things off ebay. Especially, his feedback is so low who would buy such a thing from some person. Those ppl bidding are probly ppl he knows and just trying to up the price up thats why he's hid there names. And, so we cant contact the good buyers and warn them its a scam.
