+groundtrooper Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 The ONLY pic of the cart looks like it was lifted from the $10k Goodwill Air Raid Auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the exact same picture. How pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I saw it and passed (it was clearly the same picture as the Goodwill Air Raid) but I figured someone would take a stab at it just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dopy25 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Honestly looks like the rest of the sales they have are also images ripped from other goodwill sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I think Goodwill and other similar places need to start watermarking their photos. Not their responsibility, of course, but there are assholes like this out there and we need to make things more difficult for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlynxalot Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Buying high value items from someone with 0 seller feedback/reviews is always a bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noooope. I looked back to see how this “sale” worked out. Imagine my surprise that seller is now -1 with a comment that he stole $500 and never sent the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhwolfman Posted July 19, 2021 Author Share Posted July 19, 2021 Yeppers. Lucky the buyer was protected. Like I said. Nooooope. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 In the older days, seller would have run off with the money and Paypal would have said you won your case, but we couldn't recover any money for you. Have a nice day! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to give zero and low feedback eBayers (both buyers and sellers) the benefit of the doubt, as new eBayers have to start somewhere, but looks like this seller is, indeed, a scumbag...

However, the old adage of, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is," also applies here. Not blaming the buyer for giving it a shot, but this does point out the dangers of trying to jump on an item that would be a major target for fraud.
