2005 Bambi on Ebay

nayl · 05-18-2005, 06:52 PM

For anyone who is interested and looking, I just saw a one day listing on Ebay for a 2005 CCD Bambi. As far as I could tell this is a no reserve auction, (because it doesn't list that the reserve has not been met) and the current bid is $400.

Ebay item #5583035699

I couldn't resist, put in a bid for $500

Interesting ... the description also says "Buy It Now for $9000!!" However ... there isn't a Buy It Now option.

Also, it's a 24 hour auction.

Something smells.

Who knows? I emailed the seller and he has yet to email me back... if this is a hoax, nothing lost on my end thus far. Let the bidding begin!

For Buy It Now items that have both a bid price and a Buy It Now price, the Buy It Now price will disappear once a bid is placed.

I was thinking that there has to be some sort of a catch, but the seller has an excellent feedback rating and has been selling for over a year.

I already have a travel trailer and if I didn’t I would be very tempted to look into this sale. I just wanted to pass this along in the event that it is a legitimate sale.

Maybe the auction was withdrawn. I searched for the item number and got "0 items found for 5583035699."

I put a bid on it then went to check it and ebay pulled the listing. I think the guy really screwed up on his listing.

I suddenly realized--This probably was the same scammer who posted the sham ebay listing last night for the 2005 Airstream that folks were joking about during chat.

For those who weren't at chat--there was a listing for a 2005 sold on a 24 hour auction. As it turned out, the seller had hijacked another ebayer's auction ID and was trying to get front money "to return from a business trip in Spain."

Like this one, the auction was withdrawn, apparently when ebay got a complaint from the legitimate ID holder.

I think we'll be seeing more of this fellow!
