1 Day Ebay Auction 8" x 75", 31 - Grizzly Jointers, all Ends Tonight, Scam?

[Trent]

Why would a guy sell all these on a one day auction? Sounds too good to be true.

I think I found the auction you are referring to. The guy's history is 17 transactions with 100% rating, but his last transaction was in March 2006. All of a sudden he has 63 pages of items for sale totaling hundreds of items all ending tonight!  Sounds like a scam to me!

Do you have a full picture of the mill shown in your gallery?

Be careful with things like this, it's likely that his account has been taken over by bad people.

Try "contact the seller" and that *should* email him, not the naughty people.

If in doubt. Don't touch it. Whatever it is isn't worth getting ripped off over.

asy :D

ASY, You are right. I sent the guy an e-mail with questions, he replied and told me not to bid! He said his e-bay account was being used be someone else. E-bay sent me an alert warning me about it. When I went back to check the items later today, they were all gone. I guess the crook thought he could get away with it on Christmas day when fewer people are on duty at E-bay? Just like the old saying goes, "when it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"
