so... I have my 2002 on eBay and

[Mike Mercury]

it's in day 2 of a 7 day auction; and I get two messages through ebay:

here is the first:
from eBay member: ale_dt___ei__ (some letters blanked out):
"I am highly interested in buying it.

I can access ebay from iphone so please give me your # phone to my email.

Thank you
"Peggy" (not the real name listed)

second message through eBay:
from eBay member: v___1_s (some letters blanked out):
"I am highly interested in buying it.

I can access ebay from iphone so please give me your # phone to my email.

Thank you
"Peggy" (not the real name listed)

:skep:

Both these eBay members have ZERO feedback.

So, I call eBay to report that a person has two different eBay accounts; and they say that's it's not against eBay policy to have two different accounts/names.

Huh :confused:

well; I did reply to one of the messages saying it was best to contact me directly via email; but I didn't offer my phone number.... instead saying that phone numbers are exchanged after the auction has been won.

I always thought - having two bidder names on eBay - was a no-no :nono:

I'm sure they have a cashier's check from Nigeria for more than the purchase price. Just give them the car and their change in cash and you're good to go!

You are really trying to sell it on ebay? Unless you are giving a car away, very few sell there.

That's true, but it does give you some advertising to sell after the auction ends.

I bid on a coin months ago and won and paid for it, never saw it,I have a claim in the resolution ctr. Ebay took the add down,a week later someone else is selling the same coin I bid on under a different vendor name,same add same price. From China.I reported it to ebay and Paypal.

I've sold two daily drivers of ours on eBay motors - within the past 6 years. Got the reserve plus some $$$. Effortless transactions - buyers paid in cash.

First time trying to sell a Corvette there though (fingers crossed).

!) six years ago a lot more cars seem to sell there.

2) I am guessing they were a lot cheaper priced.

The last one (Yvonnes Monte Carlo) sold about 3-4 years ago.

Yep.

I have the reserve set; so it won't sell for dirt-cheap (and may not sell at all; I'm just trying different outlets).

I was going to log in and ask you some stupid questions... Maybe I still will...

I've sold a bunch of tractors and farm equipment on Craigslist. I always prominantly place the sentence:

"This _____ will be sold locally. If you can't come out and inspect it, drive it, and make sure it meets your expectations, then keep looking, this isn't the _____ for you."

in the ad text.

I'm still surprised that I get a few phone calls and texts every time from people purportedly in other parts of the country who simply MUST HAVE my rode hard and put away wet farm equipment. Really? I guess reading comprehension needs to be taught in scammer school.

Thankfully, I think all the old crap is finally gone, so that's a problem I no longer have to deal with.
