What's with some of these sellers on Ebay

[Condor]

Lately I can believe some of the stuff sellers are listing on Ebay. Dirty, rusted, looks like they drug the bike out of Freebird's pond, and they expect a venture rider to bid on it??? It's happening more and more. Are they that hard up... or dumb??? I'da tossed it in the dumpster.

Don't feel like grabbing the exact link but there is one on for saddlebag guards that look like Condor had them hoisted up a jib for storage!! I also get a kick out of the buy it now for $2.00 and shipping is $500.00. Who are they kidding? I realize the scam is to avoid paying the percentage for the selling price. I refuse to purchase from anyone who does this.

I've seen a few Jibbs in that condition, but they usually end up as drop cloths...

It also really affects the amount that a buyer can get back in refund as they do not have to refund the shipping...

 

Sadly, eBay = Caveat emptor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna get rich selling junk on Ebay! I think that is the mentality of a lot of sellers. Take a minute to report the dirtbag sellers. Ebay doesn't like being screwed (when it happens to them that is)

There are only certain items that I will buy from eBay and it has to be from a seller with excellent reputation. Otherwise, I am not hard pressed on getting that particular item. Most of the time, I look at eBay as a means of 'window shopping' online.
