[(RED) WTB] suspect ebay listing

[Jack Swart]

A listing at

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RED-50-150-...81?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_23&hash=item233585ce95

is very suspect.

I won the bid and was then asked to pay direct to a bank account in Poland, despite the seller stating they were in Belgium.

The sale was cancelled but the lens is back up on ebay.

Beware!

I also bought the exact same lense one year ago on ebay. No communication with the seller. Same story!
Reported to ebay but nothing happend!
50-150mm under 5000$ is not realistic!

Hi, I'll go find this out.
Contacted seller and asked for local pickup (live less than 60km from Mons).
If there is no answer it's clear that this is a scam.
If he tells me it's OK to pick up and pay by cash on receiving the lens, then I'll probably resell it (no need for PL-glass).

 

[Henri De Vreese]

It's a scam. I also reported.

Thank you for the post. As someone looking for RED primes it's tempting to jump at a price like that.

Best,

They sold the same lens a few days ago and then requested the buyer send the money to a Polish bank account: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...sspagename=VIP:feedback&ftab=FeedbackAsSeller
