Re: Nikon D4 - an ebay listing... legit?
Someone on ebay is claiming they received a lot of five Nikon D4's and is selling them off at $2450 each.
Here is their email to me:
"Well if you are interested to buy this camera YES the price is $2450.Now if you are ready to buy send me your full name , shipping address and eBay ID and I will set up in order our transaction trough eBay and they will contact you with all the details.Let me know if you decide to buy now cause I have other potential costumers waiting for my answer."
Does ebay even offer a service like this?
Listing ID: 151112563438.
They may have taken it down but if you go to "Report a listing" under customer service you can type in the ID and a cached thumbnail will come up.
UPDATE: SEPT 2, 7:35AM PST
Here is their most recent reply:
"Hello ,
Unfortunately I can't accept PayPal because I have a lot of money on hold.It can expand to 45 days to witdrawal the money and I can't afford to wait that much.If you're still interested we'll use eBay payment by direct bank transfer.Looking forward for your reply.
Thank you."
So sounds fishy right there with the direct bank transfer request.
