Auction Scam?

[conda]

I saw this this Auction and was interested. I checked the shipping and it seemed very low for Priority mail. So I emailed the seller and he sends this:

 

Sorry, we are not shipping. It has to be picked up in Baltimore. We are near the old Memorial Stadium, between Lake Montebello, and Clifton golf course.

 

Now, I was confused because his auction says this:

 

Items are sold as-is and buyer to pay actual shipping (determined at auction end). Please email with any questions.

 

What is up with that?

New seller probably doesn't know any better.

But, did you see his QA? He answered someones question about shipping like this:

 

Hi, Jennifer the shipping charge should read: email for payment and shipping instructions. Buyer pays for shipping.

 

That leads me to believe they will ship. The low report from the shipping calculater is very misleading too.

 

I'm just glad I asked before I bid.

If you look at his other auctions, you'll notice there is furniture and other large items. He probably got confused and thought you were asking about one of those items -- which he probably won't ship.

Oh yeah, I didn't see those, your probably right.

It's too bad he screwed up his email to me, I would have paid more for that than what he got.
