eBay/Craigslist eBay: DROOOOOOOOL

Tractors4u · Mar 22, 2004

This looks familiar, by a different seller:

4710 on ebay

And after looking at the sellers other items, I believe this one had been a scam.

WHOA ... now that throws a new monkey wrench into the mix. EXPERIENCED seller ... same pics ... oh man ... sorry eBayers this just sends the risk matrix off the charts.

Does anyone remember the Ebay link used to report scams?

eBay should start paying us some fees methinks. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I reported it at 3:12pm CST on Monday. I gave Ebay a bunch of information, including both auctions showing the exact same pictures. Let's see if they shut this one down quickly?

 CORRECTION, I just got an email from Ebay saying my fraud report would not go through because I did not bid on the item. I cannot find the way I used to report fraud. Consequently, this item will remain active until someone can figure out how to report it to Ebay as a fraud because I gave up.

Dave, what if there IS no "town". Then they'll know that you know that they know you know! What fun is that?

Looks like the listing for the 4710 for $4,200 ended. Here is what it said at the top of the page:

( The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing. )

Go figure.

Edit: I just noticed at the top of the page it said the item was relisted or one like it. I clicked the link and it said Invalid Item. Guess it was shut down pretty quickly. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
