What is this

[Felder]

I can see it this time.

What an odd looking auction....:confused:

[Felder]

Maybe it's geting bumped because of all the stuff he put on there about buying direct. Obviously trying to get around the new fees.

Could be right there Gumby.

I shot him off an e-mail to find out what the "Buy It Now" price was on the projector Iain linked. Got this response;

Hi ... the item your are inquiring about is on sale with buy it now only .
the price is 1500AU$ for the item and as for the condition it is brand new
factory sealed with all accesories and full manufacturer's warranty .
shipping is free to your location if you buy at the fixed price. my
preffered payment method is escrow payment. I have an account setup with a
very cheap fast and secure escrow company . if you're interested in buying
please email me back and we will work out a deal.

Thats the third name he has used, can't remember what the other two were.
Wonder what happens if you bid and win
Could he be like the Chinese and Indians, cheap product with $400 freight:eek:

I don't know what all of the "Buy it Now" stuff is about, because he has it listed as an auction.
I don't really want a projector, but I am the current high bidder at $31.00
What a joke
If I win it for $31.00, I will surely find a use for it.

If I win it for $31.00, I will surely find a use for it.

Sell it on Ebay

I just spotted this (slow day for me, SWMBO is crook and I'm on nurse duty ) a bit different to what Iain has pointed out, but still in the "what is this ?" class:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/REGISTER-INTE...QQcmdZViewItem
So you pay your $10 and IFthey find something similar in the next couple of years they'll let you know and you can bid on it (as can anybody that hasn't paid their $10 ) Of course as it's so rare they can't guarantee that they'll find one in the next two years. You could, of course, just set up a auto search in MyEbay to search for said item, but then you'd be doing this poor bloke out of his ten bucks.

I wonder how many people have given this bloke $10?

[Iain]

Did.

You swine, I was waiting for my brand new Panasonic 65" plasma TV, I had the winning $20 bid too (as if it was ever going to arrive).
On another note, I sent a question to an ebay site in China when we were looking for girlchilds trombone.
I said I was in Beijing once a month and was willing to pay and pick it up when over there.
They declined saying it was contrary to policy, asked if they would freight to my hotel in Beijing, no, local couriers too unreliable, must freight to osstallia for AU$400.00
The message did not go to air on the site either (ask seller a question).
