Whilst browsing evil bay I came across a white Nissan Navara advertised for half the price of what is it worth. according to the seller (Adam) reduced for quick sale....usual guff wife left him....$10,000 for quick sale....Conditions e mail seller before bidding on e bay. seller requests all potential buyers details etc...etc...once buyer has paid CASH for the vehicle $10,000 (buy it now price) the vehicle will be handed over to the successful bidder & best of all....if you don't like the vehicle you can return it to the seller in Broome & you get a full refund!!!! WOW!!! You can't beat that....YEAH RIGHT!!!! Just be careful...vehicle XHM 596 (Vic Rego) is the vehicle advertised.........vehicle no longer found on E Bay. Could be a scam, could be the deal of the year too!!

Geez, I dunno about you, NTVRX - but every time I buy a vehicle, I ALWAYS hand over a huge wad of cash first, without even seeing, or inspecting the vehicle!! ROFL!

What's the old saying? - there's one born every minute! [;-)

Any seller that requests the buyer send an email outside the ebay system prior to bidding is up to something.

I also saw a guy selling 3 hema navigator 6's on there last night for $720 each, best price I could get anywhere was $745. This guy has zero sales before as well through eBay, be careful.

If every Internet sales scam was posted on this site the forum would be clogged solid.
It is now a basic fact of life!

Yes, you are probably correct with postings of this type clogging the forum BUT not everyone is switched on like we all think they should be & if by posting this bit of info saves one poor bugger from a scam then it has been worthwhile. Whilst some forums are reluctant to post something like this I am impressed by EO to allow this type of posting...after all we are here to help each other are we not?
