MTR's on ebay dodgy?

Just seen these for anybody who's interested.
However i think i've seen the picture before on previous listings and the seller has only been on ebay since 19 March.

Nothing to do with me Rolling Eyes

United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Manual Zermatt SilverDiscovery 3

blokesa fraudulent sponging waste-of-skin oxygen bandit -

my message:- Hi, Please advise when I can collect the 6 x MT/R's,I am working for the next thre weekends so would prefer a weekday



His message:- Hi there

I'm very sorry but i can't meet with you for close the deal in person.I'm out from UK ,i'm in Paris in France at hospital with some problems. But we can close the deal by FedEx (the tyres are here) and www.moneygram.com .

my response:- Unfortunately that is not acceptable - when will you be back in UK?
as the tyres are used, I need to inspect them before payment

his reply:- Hi there

The tyres are in good conditions. Are new. I'm back in UK 27 April. Tell me ,if you don't accept my conditions, because i can sell to other buyer.

My final message to him:- Your terms are not acceptable - the items were listed as being in UK I had arranged for a colleague to collect on my behalf. Shipping from France means I am unable to verify the goods before payment and there is no guarantee that this is not a fraudulent transaction.


followed by:- Ok sir.Bye if you can;t trust in me.I sell the tyres to other buyers


Yer right! Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

the last line of the description says it all - GOOD LUCK Banging Head Banging Head tw@t!

England 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Manual Arctic FrostDiscovery 3

I've had a look and it looks suspect, how do people get away with this.

Someone bought something from me on ebay and then wanted me to send it to Lagos, Nigeria, the alarm bells started, along with the dodgy e-mails, they are just a bunch of b Censored ds.

I have asked him a question about having a look at the tyres, and he says he is out of the country.

He's right he's on a different planet.

He's just a con man, I'd love to know who has actually bid, I bet it's him trying to make it look genuine.

Just sent the Censored the following e-mail:

Very interested in your tyres and I really want them - prepared to put in a large offer [as they are very hard to get hold of]. But you state they're in the UK, but I see another member has stated that they're in France??? With a foreign sounding name [sorry no disrespect] can you please advise exactly what the situation is!!

Will see what the response is and post.
