I’m guessing ID hijack. Every one of the seller’s other items are in Australian currency, yet this one is $US.

The hijacker is restricting bidding to pre-approved people to bypass the ebay system. I bet if you email there’s going to be some story like “I am jonson and locates in Guetemala and the vehicl is but in Morocco, but shipping is to be included for you Sir. If you will be wire me the $15,000 now I will end auction”.

Don't worry, I am not actually considering sending money! I just thought it was odd, that's all.

I asked the seller a question too. I'd fly out with cash if this weren't a scam!

I think he might have missed a zero (0) as in $200,000 or its stolen or he is already going to jail and needs bail money.

I've actually bought some R/C stuff off this guy in the past and can personally vouch that he's one of the best ebayers around. That said, I think his profile would have to have been hijacked.

Sad...

Read the question/answer section. His reply to all the questions: I didn't post this.... Someone hijacked his ID.

I already have, Tom. Shame they've hacked his account - he's a truly nice guy.
