G'day guys think I;ve come across an ebay scam, along read but please bear with me. A VZ SS for 9400:

I thought this was an awesome deal and emailed the guy asking why so cheap and what payment method he would want, his response:

"Hello, Thank you for your interest in my Commodore. The car is in absolutely perfect condition, no scratches, dings, dents or other imperfections. Always garaged. Clear title. There is no money owing on it. Price is $9,400 AU if you buy now. Firstly, I need to tell you that I recently moved to Amsterdam, Netherlands due to work and family. Since I have no more relatives back home, I brought the car with me thinking that I could register it here. However, because of the big differences between the AU emissions and the Dutch ones, I can't do so, hence I need to sell ASAP. I will take care of all transport arrangements since I am the one fettered to sell to Australia. Here's what I suggest: you make a $4,500 deposit in an ebay managed trust fund ( they hold the money until you receive the car ), I ship the car over, you can inspect it, take it to a mechanic to check it out, drive it and then pay the remaining ballance. If, by any reason, you won't be satisfied with it ( even though I can assure you that it is exactly as described), you can return it at my expense for a full refund of your deposit, no questions asked. I think this is more than fair for the both of us. If you agree, please provide your full name and shipping address and I will get everything started immediately. Afterwards, ebay will invoice you the transaction details and payment instructions. All you will need to do is follow through with their guidelines. Thank you Jim"


Then there's this 2005 Merc for 11 grand:

Notice any similarities well, I did:
1) Both memebers joined on the 25th of September with 0 feedback.
2) Both items can only be bid on by pre-approved members
3) Both use unsecure emails (yahoo, hotmail).

Also for the VZ, it says the location is WA when infact the car has VIC number plates.
