He's hoping to STEAL $5800 from the 1st idiot that believes they can buy that car.. Typical misspellings, bad grammar, etc. etc.. I reported it to eBay. Also wrote him saying I lived in Mechaniscburg, PA (where it's "located") and wanted to swing by for an inspection...

I cannot seem to find it, but I think I saw the same background and poor language on another eBay listing last week. The listing stated that he was in Japan. So, yeah it looks shady.

Sadly, when once eBay was a neat place to go for rare things a few con-artists have made it their new home. Personally, I think eBay Inc. has a responsibility to go after these people with the proper authorities and put them someplace very special...
