How is it a scam? You'd go and collect it in person and pay in person, would go to inspect before buying it.. not everything on Ebay is a scam, I should know I'm a seller with over 100 positive feedback and 0 negatives.. I'm sick of eBay being labeled as bad and people have never even used it themselves.. probably some uber rich person selling it doesn't care that it's worth much more..

Because only a retard would try and sell a car thats worth over 30 K for 10! I dont see any damage or missing parts from it. And like I said Ive used ebay on numerous occasions and my mate makes **** lod of money on there selling stuff.
Ebay is great if you know the stuff your getting and seen it before (new Sony digi cam or TV) but if its something of unknown brand or you never saw it before then I suggest you go and feel it before you pay for it.
ANyway, go buy that car dude, youll save 20 K

I would if I lived over there, would also sus out why they're selling it so cheap (if they're mega millionaires or what), I've seen a car go for $1.00 buy it now, was a british radio DJs wife sold it on him (it was in here name) because he was cheating I believe.. could be something like that? Besides they already have enough good feedback that I'd trust them, but still wouldn't just buy it now, then send them payment and wait for it to come.. I'd pay in person, verify it's not hot etc.

That 1 dollar car buy is one in a billion heh and you gotta be at right time... anyway if you knew rich people then youd understand that first of all millionaries dont drive SS let alone utes... second thing is rich people are the most tight in the world... thirdly yes you are right, id wonna see the car with a mechanic and his ten mates before id pikc osmething up like that.
Anyway i see your point mate but you gotta be cautios as theres no such thing as free lunch.

That's true, once burned twice shy I guess the saying goes, I'm probably the luckiest person on eBay so far, nothing has gone wrong *touch wood* lol
I've heard of bad things on eBay.. it could be some kind of scam but on face value it looks all legit, I guess as we go further down the rabbit hole..
But y'never know, they could have had SS ute racing in their backyard race track for a laugh

Only a retard?Think outside the square you live in mate.
One scenario that is more then likely is that hes selling it for what he owes the bank on it cos what he gets from it he has to halve with his ex wife whos taking him for everything he has.........How do i know this happens you may ask??? My friend just got burnt with his ex wife and i bought his vy ss for 18k

That's.. interesting - yeah! Steer clear guys, this could get nasty (I also contacted seller 2 asking why so cheap, just waiting for reply if any).. I get the feeling seller 1 is legit as it finished on 24K with the reserve not met, seller 2 probably ripped off the pics and stuff from seller 1

you are probably right Juzza. If you look at all details such as engine number, they are the same. I want to be a fly on the wall.
