Knew it was too good to be true. I am a skeptic by nature. Was looking at a stainless steel range hood the other day, and just for the heck of it, I placed a bid. It accepted my $1.00 bid, then I was outbid, so I upped it to $11.01 and won the item. Now, these are normally $500+ rangehoods, and this was being offered with free shipping to Canada! You can just imagine my surprise!
But...........it was coming from China, and I knew right away it was a scam, and I hit the nail on the head. About 2 hours after receiving notice of my "winning bid" I get a fraud alert from Ebay that the item I bid on was removed and so is the seller. Huh, guess if these seller's see the item as a loss, they just disappear. Thank goodness I didn't pay for it yet, I always wait a few hours just in case this type of thing does happen. Oddly enough, I see the same item (exact same ad, and photos, plus many other similar) by different sellers who just joined ebay today!
Keep you eyes open everyone, and trust your gut.
