I sent this to the amc-list but thought I would also post it on Bart's site.
This is the second AMC auction I have ever seen like this, it appears they
are baiting. Chances are a fraud auction where if you are 'approved' and
'win' they will demand X amount into their paypal account and then
disappear. Note they have been a member since today. Lotsa questions on this
one. Maybe many of us should start bidding on it starting at $100, simply
because they say in the auction they will remove them, and ebay don't take
lightly to sellers removing people's bids and will shut it downa dn they
will be out $50 listing fee.......
I'm not sure if this is a bait auction, or a spoof auction, there was
another almost similiar like this on ebay recently and ebay quickly shut it
down. I guess my questions would be why do they want to pre approve anyone,
and then put $4500 in the auction, when a auction is whatever market value
is, the car looks like a vehicle that shuold be well worth more than $4500,
at least by the few photos and limited description. Note the seller has only
been a member since today. If this auction suddenly disappears, ebay removed
it for fraud. If it stays up, maybe someone can answer some of the
questions.
