There is a Inspiration on EBAY now. I contacted the seller about it and was told I could BUY IT NOW. If I offered an acceptable bid to him. He would close the auction. I offered $1800. He said for $2000 it was mine. And now has sent an address to Western Union the money.

Problems. His Info to send the check to. Isn't the info of the lady who uses the account.

The unit he say's is new. But selling for $2000? When it's now bid up to $7400?

Crooked to say the least. Be carefull. OH, He's said he already shipped it to me also. LOL

Be carefull out there. I can't contact EBAY. My computer won't let me. So if anybody can. It might keep someone from getting ripped off...
 
Hey, do you know the item #, because I cant find it. Maybe he pulled it already???

It does sound sketchy...

The inspiration community has already nailed one scammer selling a stolen unit...
 
Thank you for writing eBay's SafeHarbor Department about a current
listing you would like us to investigate for fraudulent activity. We
are concerned about this type of activity and want to assure you that we
will review your report as soon as possible, usually within 24 hours.

Due to privacy concerns, we will not keep you informed about the status
of our investigation. While you will only receive this acknowledgement
of the receipt of your report, please be assured that we will thoroughly
review the situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The subject line you chose on the webform is reserved for reporting
current items that may be listed for the purpose of committing fraud.
In order for us to dedicate resources to preventing this type of
situation in a timely manner, emails directed to this area that do not
relate to current listings that may be fraudulent will NOT be forwarded
to another department or answered. If you have any other concerns, you
need to go back to the Rules & Safety Webform and resubmit your email by
selecting a subject line that is more relevant to your concern:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/basics/select-RS.html

The department that reviews the emails submitted using this subject line
does not investigate listing violations, items you think are prohibited
on the site or reports of image theft (please review the options
available under the topic "Questionable Content"). If you are a
participant on a listing that has already ended, this subject line is
also NOT the way to report that type of situation (you should resubmit
your email using another issue- we suggest you review the "Transaction
Problems" or "Member Problems" sections). Emails directed to this area
that do not relate to current listings that may be fraudulent will NOT
be forwarded to another department or answered.

We appreciate the time you took to contact us. To promote a safe
trading environment for the eBay community, we prohibit users from
engaging in any type of unlawful activity on the eBay web site and are
dedicated to investigating such situations.

I wish I had a MTC number. So I could screw with him some more...LOL

If you can turn it in. Do it... I had contacted others that sold to the person. And they said no problems. But that is was a woman. Which is Jayne something.... Not Jake... Think he broke her password and using her address...
 
Just bid it up to $8000 UK.... That guy ain't sellin it to nobody....LOL

Anybody else wanna have fun with him????LOL
 
VEB is VolksEigener Betrieb - company owned by the people!
Some former East Germany tag. LOL. Didn't know that's where Martin started out ... I wonder if it comes with a commie-red cover. :D
Never knew they build 7037 RBoDs ... :boom:

hope someone nails that moron!
 
I doubt they'll get him, though my fingers are crossed.
If you check the link again, you'll see that eBay finally put a stop to it. I just hope nobody got taken in by the swine. Buyer beware and all that..
