Ebay - Too Good to be True???

[c.poulton]

This guy has a complete IIIg outfit for sale - no feedback, small photos not showing any detail, ridiculous price... 😱

I feel sorry for whoever wins this one, or maybe it is the bargin of the day?

yeah, his user name on there doesnt give me a lot of confidence to buy from him either

Forget those UK/Cumbria sellers. I've encountered a number of bad ones "from" that area. Of course the location means nothing.

I just looked at the eBay post and it is at 310 pounds with 11 hours to go -- pretty normal. The big money usually moves in at the end of the auction -- sometimes in the last few seconds. A good way to find out if he's legit is to ask him if you can pick it up and pay cash for it when the auction ends.

It's a nice looking IIIg kit - if it is legit. If it is, buying from a new eBay seller is still full of squirrelly surprises.

I was born at nite, but not LAST nite. Don't you be fooled either. I hate to see people get suckered into these kind of deals if its a scam.

It could be perfectly legit but I agree, too many red flags.
