The reserve isn't met yet. On ebay if it isn't met then it won't be sold.

there have been like twn of these threads in the last three days lol. some people are so dumb to bid on these cars like that.

The strange part is, he said he just ordered it. I find it hard to believe anyone can order the car today (even at dealers that have allocation left) and be in the first ten built. I would imagine that any camaro ordered this week would be at the bottom of the allocation list

I'm gonna win that Camaro then just fax him the money.

I'm sure the bidder with 5 reviews isn't anyone he knows. I've bought allot of good things on Ebay and sold honestly a bunch of stuff. Yet there's allot of shadiness on Ebay.

These scammers bid on themselves. I usually check out whos bidding and what in the past they have bid on before. Sometimes youd find a seller that had the same bidder on all his auctions. So I would check out that bidder if he was selling anything and he had the same bidder from the auction hes bidding on. Ebay is rampid with scammers

This isn't the strange part. The strange part is the highest bidder has the highest bid on EVERY auction he had up. That auction is so obviously a scam.

HAHAHA @ "The seller lowered the reserve price."

HAHAHA @ "WIRED TRANSFERED WITH IN 3 BUSINESS OF CLOSE OF AUCTION"

Then... to the right is an Ebay add saying "NEVER pay for a vehicle by instant cash transfer"

Still says "Reserve not met" even though he lowered it.

Also "This item or one like it has been relisted." and here's the relisted item with no reserve. Biding starts at $40k lol http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=260363183265
