I was looking at motors and came across this guy who previous hasnt sold anything. He now has hundreds of thousadnds of $$ to sell! If you notice the auctions all start at .01. He ONLY needs you to bid a few cents and can ask for pay by Credit card--DO NOT GIVE YOUR # OUT TO ANYONE!

Only authorized businesses even have capabilties to collect c.c payments. Paypal listings DO show CC as pay but that is done Securely through the site; not over the telephone. This guy is gonna get alot of #'s and max out the cards. Who the hell has 50 Rolex watches and starts bidding at .01 with NO reserve. The only pic is off the internet somewhere. Be careful!

I contacted ebay a few hrs ago about this. They must have intervened and ended the auctions. He had almost 400 auctions listed with 20-25 new 4 wheelers at .01 and a slew of rolex watches at same.

i dont see how people think they can get away with something so dumb like that. i hate thieves. not to get off topic but a few days ago my family owns a dixie chopper. ( a really expensive lawnmower) and we all use it to cut our familys yard. (almost all my family lives in the same neighberhood). anyways we keep it at my grandmas house 2 houses down from me. it was stolen the past weekend. its a 9,000 dollar lawn mower! my dad just filed a police report this mornin. they said they cant do anything about it though. we have a good idea who it is. they had people workin on the roof across the street from my grandma a couple days before this happened. my uncle found roof shandaleres (sp?) around the driveway and where the lawn mower was parked. we live in a nice neighberhood so we would just leave the key in it. anyways sorry for the long post but we had insureance that covered everything but a 1000 of it.

Dixie choppers are sweeeeet....but they are too fast- they throw the operator aroun, and they tear up the grass because of their tires and weight.

We almost bought 2 of them last year. The model we priced was a little over $10,000.

We bought two toros instead for 8100 a piece. Couldnt be happier!
