Check out this auction - What the ...?

We bid on a 70 Plymouth Barracuda today on ebay. Within a couple of hours even though we were the high bid, our bid was canceled and the seller is no longer registered (heck, they only signed up yesterday). The bidding had suddenly gone out of control and the car is over 10 million dollars.

Thats crazy. Somethings aint right.

We reported it almost five hours ago but the auction is still running.

Ebay must have a bidding limit of $99,999,999.00 since the bids are no longer coming in. Amazing also is the fact there have been over 4300 hits on the counter, all from the last few hours.

:lol:!!!!

Never seen something go that high!

But $10,000 is a nice price for that car.

You never know what you can get. Most of the time these ads are to good to be true but we have bid on a couple of shady looking ads and won. We bought a Packard for way less than it was worth, resold it and made a very nice profit.

Ebay took it down.

Probably was fraudlent. I have run into a case where someone hacked into a ebay's id (someone who had over 600 reputation score), used it to post a fake auction, and then run the bids up. The auction I am speaking of in my case was eventually taken down as well.

Scam artists are the lowest form of life...

Believe it or not many of those types of Muscle cars are demanding well into the 6 figures right now, if they are in excellent condition with one of the Hemi Cuda's going for $2MM to a private collector IIRC. Of course that Cuda was a very limited edition and only several were still in circulation.

Makes me wish my folks never got rid of their 68 Camaro SS from when we were kids. While they are not as rare one in excellent condition would be fun to take out on the weekends.
