1970 Ford GT40 Replica on eBay, Ford, Classic Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (item 280141559039 end time 05-Sep-07 18:03:24 BST)

I have reported it to Ebay, it'll be interesting to see how long they take to remove it.

That looks like the second Dax in Scotland (Dave Bilyk has the other)
He has had it on E ?Bay a few times but it never seems to reach reserve

Hi Guys
Response from this scammer, just typical No name either.


Hello,

I am selling this car for £2400 including delivery anywhere in UK. I think this is a low price but i need cash for a family emergency. I have to tell you that I'm currently out of town with some major problems so pick up/view isn't an option. If you want to buy this vehicle email me back with your full name and address to start the official procedure trough eBay. They will send you a notification with ALL the info regarding delivery, purchase protection and refund policy so please provide your details before more questions. You will find 90% of answers in that notification from eBay!

Thanks

Ebay doesn't care about scams. I have notified them before. They don't do anything.

I actually emailed the seller because I thought the price was wrong and wanted to know the real price:

It's been pulled off. I actually emailed the seller to ask to see it, it was just down the road from me, needless to say I did not get a reply.

Interesting to hear about the EBay scam - I emailed a guy last week about a 63 Split Screen Corvette (admittedly a restoration project) for £1,800 and got exactly the same story! Funnily enough, he got quite shirty when I said that I wouldn't part with a penny without looking at it....

Even less believable was the supposedly concours Aston DB4 for £1,800 as well....
