So I bid on a NEW set of 132's with tires in Germany...1200 bucks, and Im winning hands down..A max bid of 1800 bucks for now...The guy refuses to answer his emails about shipping, so I retract my bid(s)....

A little while later, I get an email saying I have a chance to buy a set of 132's previously listed on ebay, at my BID PRICE!! 1700 bucks!! However, I get this same email, for the same item number, from two different user names! one in the US, and one in the UK! Anyway, I email the user back asking what the deal is, and I get this directly from him a few minutes ago...


Hello,

You have the opportunity to purchase this item at your bid price. If you're ready for this purchase, I need to know your eBay user ID, full name and address, as soon as I have them I'll start the official procedure, and eBay will notify you about this. You'll also receive important guidelines + instructions from them (please go through them exactly). I'll handle the shipping, so this will be free of charge for you.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Thanks



Free shipping?! Is he retarded? I dont know where he is, and he doesnt know where I am! (I think)..IS this an example of an ebay scam?! The item number traced back to the 132 auction in New York. Somebody please advise..Im too old for this s&@#.....
