Ebay Scams

[roscobbc]

I know Callaway Malc has a thing about these and they still seem to be going on in the Classic cars section. They show pictures and details of cars which appear to be in the USA but are listing a UK sellers location.
I am not a Bentley expert but a Continental R type and a Graber bodied convertible have been listed being available to a to UK purchaser at £5000, even as basket cases prices will be way in excess of these figures.There is even a early fuelie Vette at a really silly price of £4600. Am I missing something here ?

I saw that one - and at that price, it looks too good to be true... which probably means it is!

Interestingly the two Bentleys and the Vette cars are no longer posted. Is Ebay policing the site more effectively ?

There head guy was on Watchdog yesterday, quite interesting article. I got the feeling EBay's policing was, at best, very reactive. Apparently there are still people 'selling positive feedback' - I would have thought even this area would have been v easy to police.
