For Real or Scam?

[Tom Lempicke]

A guy is posting a "Buy It Now" on E Bay for $3,700. It is a brand new black i2.

He apparently has sold two just like it and both customers have left good feedback.

Is this for real? How is he coming by new Segs? Could they be stolen or water damaged?

Any one have some real no kidding information?

well for starters there is no fixed shipping price. He can bill you another $500 if he wants to, I have won and had a shipping charge of $150 added to an item that only cost $200 and I knew only cost $20 to ship. eBay did nothing to help. Also he has a TOTAL of five comments over 5 years. And you can't be sure these weren't schill bids, where he creates a second, third and fourth ebay account and bids & wins his own items so he can leave feedback...happens alot. Look at the profiles of the previous "winners" - none have any info except "United States" - now look at some other reputable people with 100+ sells and see if they have even TWO that don't list a city/state. I wouldn't do it. Oh well, if it never gets delivered and they claim it was signed for as received, you could get a $200 refund from ebay!

You're talking about

I'd be sceptical. The previous Segway related feedbacks were left after 0 (!) to 3 days after purchase - IMHO not very trustworthy. And there is no "story" how he/she got the Segway and why he/she is selling it, just a short copy & paste from the Segway homepage... suspicious, IMHO.

PS: Pam & Co. - move it to the Buy & Sell forum?

I sent the E Bay guy an E Mail earlier today asking for a phone number. He says he does not like to talk on the phone.

If it sounds to good to be true......................................

Called Jared in Ohio and got a great deal!

He is shipping tomorrow!

Any good Segway Dealer will talk to you on the phone.....

Looks like our very tall Ohio dealer took good care of you, as he is well known to do!
