Default Is this an example of an EBay rip-off?

O.K. guys, I think I found an example of a rip-off...what do you think?
A 1967 427/400hp car with a small block hood and all you gotta do is send $1500.00 to Singapore for God's sakes!

Here's the link..... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6168

Good luck and good bidding

That may be a scam but doesnt look like the usual ebay scam.Here lately there has been a swarm of them,3-5 at a time.The definite scams are the ones where there is no city listed at all ,there is no reserve and it starts out at a rediculous amount.As you scroll down there will be a buy it now price between you and the seller for a really low price for a pristine restored car.Idiots like this make it hard on everyone to trust ebay sellers.

Hmmm, located in Indonesia, numerous positive feedback as a buyer, absolutely no feedback as a seller. Is it a scam or someone who really doesn't know anything about Corvettes using 'keywords' which he's gleaned from other ads? Loads of stolen cars get shipped overseas. I wonder....
