The plates are NSWPosts WORLDWIDE...good on ya Free Shipping...Starting bid is 123 Very much a Fraud I'd say You can contact ebay and file a complaint and ebay can look into it. Also to actually list a car on ebay you have to pay $40 AU just to list it....Seems strange to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you do, I had a look and they were selling it for $9000 (BARGAIN), so I read everything they had to say about the car. It was from Vic.2003 BA Xr6 Sedan Auto2600kmsLeather SeatsPremium SoundSat NavMomo Leather Steering Wheel -Sports ShifterAfter Mark It DVD onto ICCTint ect ectSounds bloody good hey. So I emailed them to find out more and why the urgent sale. The following day, I check my email and jumped onto Ebay again, only to find that the car was no longer there. (mmmmm). I once again sent them a email asking why is the car not on eBay anymore. Replied back with...... "I received too many emails regarding the sale of my car, that's why I removed it from eBay. It is still available for sale though."After asking too many questions about the car and the purchase (stating I would only accept COD), he never replied back - SHOCK!I'll keep it short just by saying, Be very careful everyone. Find a copy of the email that this loser sent me for your enjoyment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falchoon I see red Member 5,758 Member For: 22y 5d Location: nowhere in particular Posted 12/04/05 12:00 PM Share Posted 12/04/05 12:00 PM Must be the same guy as a host of other eBay cheap car scams. There has been about half a dozen or so (probably more) that I've heard about in the last few months including BA GT and SS Commodore. It is the same letter in the same broken english. There's a scam going (not sure if it's coneected to this one or a seperate one)where the guy finds a legitimate car for sale on another website like Carsales and attempts to pass it of as his on eBay. I recently advertised my XR6T for sale on eBay and the auction finished without meeting the reserve and some scammer emailed the highest bidder offering to sell "his" car to the bidder at a few hundred $$ more than the final closing bid. Luckily the guy had already emailed me for some more pics previously and knew that the email address of this scammer was different to mine so didn't get sucked in.
