Let's see where the bidding goes .

I wonder what he means by "completely rebuilt" , an often abused phrase.

I like it , I'm gonna bid on that sucker.

Why ? I've always liked full size J series trucks , an M715 is an even more stud like version.   This particular M715 is just too cool , I can't resist.

Must resist going too high on my max bid ,  expecting that this will get silly in the final hour of the auction.


There's a stock M715 , on ebay now , that has reached and will exceed $7000 , this one .........



The one I like is a resto-mod  ,

Hmmmm

Item has been removed

My gut feeling was , there was something odd about the listing to begin with .

1.  Member has no transaction history , 0 items bought or sold under that  identity.

2. No description of item other than "completely rebuilt" and one picture.

3. No replies to either of my two requests for additional information or pictures.



You'd think that , if a person was to "completely rebuild" a vehicle , as portrayed in the add , they would be proud of the finished product , prepare a detailed description of the item , the restoration work completed  and document it with pictures . This is what should have happened , normally it's done to gain interest in the item and to make buyers more confident that they may be bidding on a valued item.

Oh well that's ebay , I've seen it before , will see it again.

By the way ,   I never bid on it , choosing to watch the bid action , then ,  like a sniper , wait till the final seconds of the auction before bidding .
