Really bad scam?
Hey just saw this car on ebay that has fraud written all over it. Its so obvious its horrible.

1) seller not a registered user?
2) Free shipping on a car?
3) No location?

It might be free shipping within 100 miles of his location, but then he's always gonna be more than 100 miles from anyone that wants to buy it.

I'm confused how you can post something on eBay if you're not a registered user...

edit:
eBay search: http://pages.ebay.com/help/feedback/...egistered.html

nvm

This listing (4537228195) has been removed by eBay or is no longer available.
