Since you can't bid without approval from the seller, email him & tell him you will buy it now and pay in person. Reserve a truck and trailer in Raliegh, rent a little car and drive there. If it's the real deal, you stole it. If he denies you this option, then it's a scam. You can't get bad feedback if you don't bid or buy.
 
BIG time scam no vin # listed I have had my Id and account stolen by some
hacker and listed a bunch of stuff with my Id buy only if you pay in person
do not wire money you will never get it back.
 
Actually looking closer.. The buy it price on his 'fake' site says $2900 but if you click his button it requests a buy it for item number 4625079887, not 4624951773 which is the car (according to ebay).

Click on the link and watch on top of the IE bar how the ebay item number changes when you get redirected. It's quick so you may have to click the back button and watch it reload again.

I wonder what that redirected number is? Could be some piece of **** car for $2900 or even an empty box.
 
What a scam. Gotta be!

This is the page BEFORE the redirect:

One of the pages found in the above:
http://www.geocities.com/sandra.wal...swseBayISAPIdllViewItemitem4624689717.htm.htm <-- a jeep thing for, you guessed it, $2900

Seller names are never the same. Run!
 
I emailed this guy to see what I would get back. Here is what I emailed to him.

I'm interested in purchasing your Oldsmobile. I would like to look over the car and buy it in person. Can I setup a time to look at the car. I'm a cash buyer.


Thanks
John


Here is his response:

Hello,
I'm glad that you're interested in my 1975 Oldsmobile Cutlass W-30.Let me tell you all about this car.
This was my brother's car, he died and left me the car in his will, I'm selling so cheap because it brings bad memories, it was registered in US.
The car is street legal and accurate. It has no scratches, no damages, no hidden defects. Kept it in a warm garage. It comes with all the documents needed for registration in US, it has a clear title and it can be registered into your name at any time.
The buy it now price is US $2,900.00. This buy now price does include the shipping and insurance fees.
Location:
I'm located in Mansfield UK and the car is here as well and so this is where the car will be shipped from ( for local buyers or for cash payments vehicle inspection / pick up is also available at anytime during 10:00AM - 20:00PM ).
Shipping:
I've done some research and the best and fastest way I can ship it is using Hemisphere Cargo Shipping Ltd which takes between 7 to 9 days to arrive at your door and costs (door to door handling and shipping insurance fee included).
The most important thing in all my activity here is that I am affiliated with Yahoo! Finance where I have a purchase protection account for $ 5,000.00.
How will Yahoo! Finance protect your purchase ?
This service allows us to complete this transaction in a manner that is quick and safe for both of us. It acts as a third party between seller and buyer to insure that both parties comply to transaction requirements and provides dispute resolution and mediation between parties. Yahoo! Finance is responsible to insure that both parties comply to transaction requirements.
If this is ok with you please reply with your complete name, address and shipping address in your next email and let me know if you are interested in knowing more details about this purchase so that I can open a transaction case at Yahoo! Finance and move forward with this deal.
Thank you,
Thomas


I would say yes it's the biggest scam going!
