Just was looking through e-bay and saw that someone posted pictures of MY car for sale. Only asking $12,000. Great deal. I wish I could buy it but I already own it. Item # 120034490584

I trust you used the "report this item" link at the bottom of the page? Ebay will pull it in a heart beat if you can prove it's your car they're trying to sell.

Don't pull it! I need another Viper and the price is right :) :)

(I wonder if they will take a post dated, third party, out of country check even tho I have no ID?)

Are you sure that's your car and not actually the eBay sellers? I mean, just look at his feedback. I'm confused and don't know who to believe now. I know for sure that eBay has NO FRAUDULENT activity going on. Hmmm, just who to believe.... :hitfan: :2tu:

Oops, I made a mistake. The seller is a she. Check out her about "ME" page. And she's close enough to me to where I wouldn't have to ship the car. Hey Paulie G, can I use your keys so I can go test drive it? :D

Do you know this person or something? Is it a practical joke? The pics are from your gallery, for sure. Sure doesn't look like Texas in the backround. Does the VIN match?

The last 2 ebay frauds reported here previously (remember the $8500 buy it now?), I contacted ebay & the sellers as they both had 100% positive feedback and I suspected that their id's were stolen. Never heard from the sellers but received 2 letters from ebay about me trying to contact the sellers and how it was against their rules to buy outside of ebay and yada yada yada. Ebay busts my chops after I notified them about the auctions being bogus. Never again.

AND, that check is already written for $7,000 more than the sale price, they just need to refund me the difference, however, since I'm such a nice guy, they can keep 10% of the overage for their trouble.

OK? :ooo:

I sent the seller a question about the pics, before the item was pulled, and put it on my watch list.
I just checked 'me ebay', not only does it not show on my watch list but there is no reply to my question, further more, there is no longer a copy of the question on my account!! Ebay must have gone in and erased it and any other trace of this fugazi post.
