too good to be true?

Something rubs me wrong about this auction http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7624783245&fromMakeTrack=true

Doesnt look real does it, the 1 dollar shipping and all that huh...

I want it but there are too many bad signs maybe.

A "seller" in Germany shipping for $1 via USPS Priority Mail with a "private" rating!

Run, do not walk, just Run away!!!!

The member profile says he's in Germany but the item location is in USA. I don't know how signigicant that is though. Maybe he's handling the sale for someone else. I guess I'd be a little nervous, especially since he obviously wants such a quick sale though. Too many crazy scams running around that place to be too complacent.

 

[Nick R.]

Someone bit. Although the buyer has zero feedback and the seller has private feedback and lives in Germany and the item is in the US. Very Strange.

honestly, I probably would have bought that one.. paying with a credit card through Paypal gives enough security that I wouldn't have worried about getting screwed.. it might have been a hijacked account.. but I know my credit card company would cover me if that were the case

 

[Nick R.]

Yeah, Brett. I think I would have too. An M6 for under a grand is pretty sweet. As long as I'm protected by my credit card company, it's not much of a risk. I wonder if he had a friend register to buy it when he realized the price was too low?

Except this same seller also had the camera listed (same S/N listed!) for $50 less, also BIN. Someone else bought that one as well:

[JoeFriday]

looks like a hijacked account after all

 

[Avotius]

heh, it wasnt me who bought it, yeah, I had a feeling something icky was going on there, but wanted to make sure from the people who are more experienced in this stuff
