:p I did the same. :D Wouldn't it be nice to own one for $100.00

p.s. you know.... I did check the guy's other auctions and he used "ebay turbo lister" .... I'm wondering if it was just an honest mistake on his part.

Why hasn't anyone bid on this yet?
I mean, 14 hours left, and No bids?
And under $100...
Am I missing something?

they are a 24 hour auction... so they were just put up. also if you look at his other items, he has the same auction posted 9 times. posted in buntches of 3 at different times. so its HIGHLY unlikelly that this person has a horrible internet. very fishy

also now that i look at it... it looks like this persons ebay has been hacked. as the same thing has happened to me before... so im assuming based on first hand experience

so 544 items, all posted more then once at 30 minute intervals with a starting price of $99. im definetly going with scam on this one

what happens is, a third party... usuallly outside of the U.S.A.. hacks into some ones ebay account. from there they use a bot that copies old ebay auctions and will repost those auctions on the Hacked ebay account.

then what happens is, people will buy the auctions thinking hey, great seller and super cheap item. but the part where the hacker gets you is, they set up a fake pay pal account that actually makes you send money to some location based in China. but the worst part is, before the majority of people file claims to get there money back. the said account where the money has been sent is whiped clean and deleted.

Look at all of the sellers acutions. I doubt it's humanly possible to enter that many auctions in that short a period of time.

But just in case I think I am going to bid on one of the Bobcats to use it as a personal golf cart :headbang:

This is definitely not right. I watched the original auction of this gun a couple of months ago. The auction was won by Alias Render who later posted negative feedback saying that it wasn't in brand new condition. I've since seen this thing go up for auction about 3 different times being sold under 3 different names, using the exact same pics from the original auction.
