Looks like they're going for cheap!

Yeah, from a seller with no real pictures of the item and a
zero rating.

He's been selling since yesterday. And has 2842 items
available. 2842 non-existant items.

Also, you have to email first because he "may not be able to
complete the sale" which is a recently common trick. The
seller gets you to bid, emails you and says "I can sell it
right now for $x." Buyer goes for it, sends a check, whoosh.
No deal ever happens, Ebay can't/won't protect it, and buyer
gets no bike.

Should we do a "pre-emptive strike" report of an Ebay
report, to try and save all the people that're gonna
get screwed on his Ellsworths, Demo9s, VAIO laptops
and 20" rims?

I went ahead and reported him based on scam potential...

"Seller has been active for 24 hours and has listed over
2800 items. All items are very popular high-dollar items,
none have pictures of actual items for sale. Seller solicits
emails before buying - which points to the common "I can
sell it to you right now for cheap" scam. All signs point to
a scam waiting to happen - and since he's "selling" a lot of
mountain bike stuff, I take it personal 🙂."
