Folks,
There was an auction for a loaded late model K3 (almost all accessories)
listed on eBay yesterday for $1700, however, the listing said he "could not
read eBay email so email me directly" to complete the transaction. I
contacted eBay support to question this since it seemed very odd. They
immediately pulled the ad since it violated eBay's rules of giving a direct
email address in place of using eBay's email system. eBay did NOT tell me
if the offer was real or not (they don't care), they just told me it was a
violation of policy and removed the ad. It may be just fine and the seller
just doesn't understand the rules, but it sure seems fishy and I thought I
would mention it to this group because the price caught my attention and
I'll bet others would be tempted as well. I sent an email to the seller to
inquire about the serial number (you could almost make out a 2600 type
number in the picture) before I got too suspicious but the seller never gave
me the serial number. Too many red flags to chase this one. Buyer beware!
;-)
