maybe a good deal if you live near there:

1600 Euro

and no, I'm not related to the seller - just find this offer - posted today.

I read french and -trust me if you will- this is the result of an automatic english-to-french translation.

Scam classic, I'm sorry :/


EDT: I'm trying to know more about it, just in case.

1600 euro is approx $US 2500

Too good to be true

Oui, il y a une tonne de scam sur ce site. Et c'en est un autre exemple flagrant.

Comme ils disent en anglais: too good to be true, indeed.

Bad automated translation, photos stolen from an eBay auction back in july, ridiculously low price, all the elements of a classic scam.

Is the seller a Nigerian prince who needs his voyager to be sold quickly so militants won't seize it?

Probably. Or he's an art dealer from Chicago who needs to sell it so he can afford to come home from Nigeria.

No but he to speak a bite like zis like he dosent now how righting the langage.

I had signaled the ad to the site administrators pointing to the tell-tale signs of a possible scam attempt.

Good news, I was informed that the ad was taken down by them, upon their review, for not meeting the minimum requirements needed under their rules.

One down, still more to go, as they keep popping-up...
A rule of thumb: if it sounds really too good to be true, it usually isn't and steer away. Especially if the item is far away on top of that !

A lot of these scams could be cut down if ebay would automatically watermark any photos uploaded to their site.

My pics on my website are watermarked for a REASON.
