I was "working" today, when I saw this 


http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...N%3AIT&rd=1


I think I was the 3rd guy to look at and I promptly hit the BIN button.


I have another unpained shell that is not as complete that I will be listing shortly with pics

Yep that's an absolute bargain .... may not be a problem but I see the seller is now 'no longer a registered user'.

In looking at this seller's ebay feedbacks, he is no novice in terms of tamiya rc stuff. So did he really not know what a new SS body kit is worth? Maybe he knew a suspension was coming so he trys to get some quick cash before the suspension? I always thought that if a deal is too good to be true, it probably is not true.

All those auctions' pictures have different backgrounds. It makes one wonder if those pictures are borrowed photos. Like I mentioned earlier, he probably knew an ebay suspension is coming so he made a few (too good to be true) listings to grab some quick cash. I hope you paid through paypal with a credit card. In case you don't receive the SS body set, most likely his paypal account will be empty already, you can still make a claim with your CC company.

I would love to believe that, but find it kind of unlikely.  I've
been bit by one of these before myself- The guy even maintained  excellent contact with me throughout the deal.. until his account went unregistered[8o|]



I'll cross my fingers for you- but you might want to get on PayPal early:


Even if you've paid by transfer, and the seller's account is dry,
PayPal offers a refund up to $200 for ripoff sellers.  They take
$25 as a service charge, so in your case you'd get your total paid
(with shipping)  minus $25.
