HU: Noctilux in Europe; too good to be true?

[sweathog]

Just spotted this on that auction site: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Noctilux-1-50...ryZ30062QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Seems too good to be true.
Not out for it myself, but somebody may be interested.

Thanx for the post but I see:

PayPal buyer protection doesn't apply to this item.

so it makes me

I just asked the seller where I can pick up the MP he also has on offer.
See if I get a reply.

Best regards,
Uwe

So here we have an auction where a German ebay account with a German name wants to sell a severly underpriced item which is billed in british pounds (1.172,99 EUR --> 900 GBP) which will be mailed from Austria for free.

Sounds fishy to me.

Item has been removed from the link!! So I suppose if it's too good to be true, it usually is...

Cheers,

I'm sorry for being off-topic but... may I ask what HU means?

It means Heads Up, or "take notice!".

watch out guys.

lots of leica stuff gets offered these days

the indicators are:

item in austria
low starting price
no real serial number, just the model number
lack of english skill
price in pound sterling

i was dreaming about a noctilux for 900 pound sterling for a day, then reality came back to me and i realized that its a fake
