When I was looking for a mog there was a nice Plus 4 advertised in Switzerland at a very reasonable price. When I emailed the owner I received a reply telling me the car is actually in Spain and the owner will happily deliver to Austria. We do this all the time, he said. Of course a transfer of some money would ensure the delivery confused It looked like a scam and it was a scam and no money left my account. A friend had a similar experience trying to buy a 2CV advertised at a "very reasonable" price in Germany. He actually transferred a holding deposit but was cautious enough to use a system that allowed him to recover the money as the person who came to collect it could not provide identity. It's a minefield out there! irked

When I sold my last GoldWing using the internet I did check prices of the "competition". Some 10-20% of the bikes were priced substancially lower than the average price level. They all had strange selling conditions or were located in Spain, the Baltiks or in Poland with residents in France or the UK.
Seems to be a profitable business to cash money for nothing in return...
