Normaly scammers steal someones identity thats been inactive for a while. This persons been very active lately. Email this person, tell them you live in Ny and want to come by and see the bike. Also ask how they want payment. He says no PayPal so thats not a good thing. If he doesn't want you to come see it, thats another no no. If he'll let you come see it and payment is due at the time of pick up like the auction suggests then maybe you'll get a good deal.

Check out his other auctions for sale. Definitely scam, but wshrdskin is right, usually the ID's are inactive. But still, this guy only buys on ebay, and buys coins.. soo....

All of these supposed good deals are scams, email some of them, you know the auctions for nearly new machines for 1/3 of what they are worth.

I emailed a couple the other day, interesting they are all from out of the country, one was Italy and the other was in Africa. Amazing thing was they wanted me to wire transfer the money to their bank account, of course out of the country.

If anyone is dumb enough to think these are for real then they deserve to loose their money. It is the old addage, if it sounds to good to be true it probably is. I am sure there are some that need money badly and sell cheap, however if they are out of the country dont do it, it is a scam.

Hope that saves someone the frustration of bidding on something like this.

If you can't go see the quad in person. Don't buy it. I'll never understand why anyone would buy a quad on Ebay or anywhere else on the internet anyway. Buying a plug, tires or other parts for your quad I could see and have done. Not a whole quad or car or anything that major. jmo
