Right on Jared...
SCREW EBAY Those A$#$^$$# have ripped me off more and more and the people are ruining it!!!
Ebay management is just as crooked as the shysters who are selling damaged airplanes.
I have to agree with Tracey. Self policing and feedback are what we have to go by. Ebay cannot possibly check out items for sale. I've never been ripped by ebay management, although they can be quite frustrating to deal with. Recently I listed an old ipod that needed repair and it was bid up to $56.00. The high bidder wanted me to include more stuff with it (clearly described as not included in the auction), so he refused to buy it. He also said that he'd leave me negative feedback if I did it for him. I forwarded it to Ebay and it didn't quite meet the feedback extortion criteria. So, in order for me to protect my 100% rating, he gets away with it. Ironically, it sold for $100.00 when relisted. Ok, back to the subject of this thread. What he's doing is fraud, no doubt. But, he could have it listed in trade-a-plane, or any number of other sites or publications and they would not be responsible for his description. Maybe the FAA could make a note in the registry when a plane is totaled. A Google search for N5793E didn't turn up any evidence of the damage. I can't believe anyone would bid on it without at least searching the N# online.
