ahhhh, my son had his motorcycle stolen while in Iraq, so he was anxious to get a new one... On e-bay is a scam very much like this for motorcycles, tractors, etc., the scam centers around a "trusted" site that the seller uses, you send the money to the seller and if you aren't happy the trusted site sends you your money back.. Of course it is all a scam, the trusted site is not for this, it is for disputes as a mediator site, and your money is gone.
The old adage, if the deal is too good, then don't be an idiot
