Get this - Someone in NY is selling my car on Ebay! Someone logged onto my cardomain site and brought this to my attention. He pointed out that the seller was using a bunch of my pics, but didn't get a response.

Funny thing is, the guy is claiming my car is Titanium Silver, which isn't even true. Personally, I think it's really deviant to post pictures of someone else's vehicle since it's not even the vehicle he's selling!

Do you guys agree this is wrong? I'd like to alert those bidding on my car on Ebay that they're not looking at the car they're trying to buy. Who knows what condition his vehicle is in! I'm not sure where to run with this. Suggestions??

Here is the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2452824379

That is ridiculous, contact ebay OVER AND OVER.

I think it is misrepresentation on the seller's part. That is as wrong as two left feet. He should give you 10% of the selling price for using your pics w/o permission.

That person is retarded. I hope no one gets suckered into buying his. I'm not sure what action you can take. I've seen some ridiculous things on ebay but this is crazy.

Quick update - I just sent this to the seller. We'll see if he responds. Judging by your responses, maybe I should have said to rip the pics down...

zorick - The pictures you've posted on your Maxima auction are from my cardomain site. While I'm flattered by your description, I feel you should at the very least note in your auction that these pictures aren't of your car. People use pictures to reference vehicle condition, so I think pointing this out very clearly is essential. Also, my car is Chrome Silver, not Titanium Silver - Your buyer is likely to be rather annoyed when you deliver a car that's a different color than the car in the pics. Please make these corrections or remove my pics from your auction. Thanks.

That sucks...just FYI you car is not chrome silver...no such color. It's Sheer Silver.

Whoops, typo. Note the color in my profile is at least correct.

"Sheer Silver" is called "Chrome Silver" in Canada.

damm people on ebay are always sceaming. i hope no one bids on it cause they aren't getting a car .

you are too generous... he's a scam artist and is trying to steal someone's money. I'll be surprised if he actually has a car at all. Notice his last feedback is from over 3 months ago so you can't see the other things he's sold?

anyway, if he does not reply I'd make a new ebay name and do BIN, then when he asks for payment you ask him for a reply to your first email...

ya man you should bid on it and after he asks for payment just tel him you magicly already got the car.

i sent him an email asking to see pics of the car he is actually selling.

ya know, someone should BIN, and sue the guy we he can't deliver housecor's car.

does anyone have carfax so we can see if that VIN is even a maxima?

edit: part of the answer..

Or, an org member in that area can ask to see the car. Take a few buddies along in case he is up to no good.

housecor, if i were you, i'd keep my car in the garage at night.

sorry to burst the bubble for some of you guys but no one is able to go see the car like some of you are saysin, i dont know whay you guys are sayin to se eif hes up to no good, the guy is a scam artist and i dont know why you guys are being so nice to the guy. He is just going to keep someones deposit money after they win the bid and never show his name again on ebay. Someone should just bid and **** him over.

is it true that only 500 titanium edition maximas were made? that's waht the seller said.

I believe that he seems shady too. What does that have to do with bursting anyone's bubble? If it can't be viewed ahead of time, that's fine. If he had pics of the actual car he was selling, it would look more legit. Everybody does not know how Ebay works. I would personally never buy a car that I did not get to thoroughly inspect and drive first.

That p!ssed me off so bad, that I even reported it. Selling a car with pictures that aren't of the actual car is completely fraudulent. Granted, the guy probably just doesn't own a digicam, but tough ****.

How the F.UCK is he trying to sell your maxima?

Report him to Ebay for false advertisement?

He is showing pics of your car when in fact he is selling some beat up S.hit.

That's the ticket. They are depending on suckers to wire them non-refundable deposit like someone else said in this thread.

call him. (917)662-1961

He's selling a picture of somebody else's car.

Cocky dude. I guess he told you, huh?

I just contacted all bidders and informed them about this with a link to this thread. I also replied to this moron with a relatively unfriendly response.

i sent a "heads up" to the high bidder.

this guy is a **** bag. some guy almost got me a few months back on a 325ci. had to report him to the secret service and all. they take internet fraud very seriously. a member here helped me out big time and had the escroe site shut down in like 30 min after i told him about it. it still ****es me of today to think about that or someone trying to do the same thing to a fellow org member!

i predict that the car will be off the auction block by the end of the day.

Watch who you are calling an Idiot your jerk off. You never know who
you are
****ing with.

this is a copy of the email i just sent him. i figure if enough of us send him angry emails, he will get the idea he is a turd poker.

"you're a loser! stop trying to sell **** you don't own! get a ****ing job and stop trying to take peoples hard earned money in a spineless scam. you are an oxygen thief and every breath you take is one less for the rest of us respectable people. kill yourself and make the world a better place."

I forgot to copy the top address line... I didn't say that....he did.

please HAMMER this guy with hate mail....

aLLs I can say is, you guys are AWESOME for finding this out and taking care of it!!!! go .ORG!!!!

i just tried his phone. it's a cell, and i did get his voicemail. sounds like a foreign dude. the only reason i bring that up, is because the article i posted referenced broken english.

no, i did not leave a message.

Man, this REALLY p!sses me off, especially since I almost bought a car over the internet a few years ago.

we should ALL call this guy and leave a message.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! seller has ended the auction early because of an error in the listing.

good work, .org.
