BUYER BEWARE - FRAUD ALERT

Post by rustynswrail » Sat Oct 24, 2015 10:31 am

Anyone thinking of buying this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Whistler-WS1 ... Sw5VFWKIFl beware it is more than likely a fraudulent listing.

There has been a spate of this type of listing on Ebay whereby the price for the item is well below wholesale and as you can guess too good to be true. Make your own mind up.

Good catch Russell,

Also seller usually has zero feedback and location is some obscure country town.

Kev,

That's the give away, the location is often in the middle of nowhere and the price is well blow wholesale. They tried it with the UBCD396XT sometime ago at extremely low prices.

They are at it again. The location is at the back of Wauchope in the middle of the scrub.
