Brand new 11x14 Deardorff for 1307$ Buy It Now ? No problem for discounter_shop
Story:
was watching on ebay for silvestri items
when I realized that two sellers are offering the same Silvestri SLV camera
kit with exactly the same headline and photo!
One is the seller rovertiger with offer 200732214657.
This offer appeared several days ago.
The other seller is discounter_shop with offer 160770481764.
His offer was visible only for a short time.
Very strange I thought, the item's photo wasn't an official product
photo from Silvestri......
Finally having a look at the ebay store of discounter_shop
I found more strange things, eg. this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Deardorff-11...e#ht_500wt_927
Or are you quit with film and want a digital back?

He says that he has five of them. Brand new! If the picture is of one of these 'brand new' cameras, though, it's had a tough journey being born. Looks like it took about 30 years, and deserts, mountains, prairies and hot city streets may have been involved. ;)
Oh, and that old lens in an Ilex shutter: is that new, too?
Three bidders: having fun with the crook or do they want to believe?

Nice! ..and a Hasselblad CFV-39 back at only $18.27 current bid. ...and a CFV-16 kit with Hassy camera and lens...$79.55-getting out of my price range though.

Now all that nice items disappeared over night.
"The seller currently has no items for sale"
Time to study his feedback:
Oh, nearly all of his buyers are sailing privately....
http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...al=0&items=200
I ask me, what is in the end the trick?
Do such sellers want to bait people into their shop with too attractive items like a
Deardorff 11x14 for $1307 Buy it Now Price (which wasn't obviously so new
as Mike remarked) ?
Only a complete nut would sell all that high price items like digital backs, high end Sony video cameras or Leica M9's - of course all of them brand new :rolleyes: - for $1307 (yes every item the same price)
stating there are 5 items of every product available.
If it walks like a duck.....

Wake up and smell the coffee - this is a scam.
This type of thing happens regularly. Note the conditions: must contact the seller rather than bid. Note that the details are not typed using eBay's interface, rather, they're an inserted jpeg.
This is not new. It has been going on for years. Usually something like a PS lens or some other desirable and rare piece of equipment...

OK, and what happens if someone is going into the trap?
All money away in the end?

Nice.
And what's the trick with nearly every transaction is private?

That way you can't check and see if the people who give him thumbs up are real people with a history, or just shills.

I had a short look at some buyers feedback:
most transactions with other sellers are not private.
