Inspire scam on ebay!!!!

I dunno if any of you have noticed but the same couple guys are selling inspire tails on ebay. I have been watching for awhile and saw someone get them for the $189 starting price once. The rest of the time they are run up EVER time, even when nobody posts about them. Usually the final bidder is a (0) feedback aka a first time user. I think that they are running the price up. Also, every time there are a few hours left and the tails are not selling for alot, the seller pulls them, and sometimes, offers to end the auction early "for the right price" another ebay violation.

They are trying to sell used inspires for $330 plus $89 shipping, when I just saw someone on here buy them for $315 final price and $89 (all together price $315 approx)

Anyway it is bs that this guy is so shady, in fact I emailed him bout the spires that just sold and fact that with shipping they were $315 and that now he was asking over that PLUS $89 in shipping. Hey you are totally free to see how much $$ you can get, but you cant #%^#$%^$% pull auction becuase you dont like the price, and run the price up.

Here is the reply I got from the a-hole when he pulled his inspire tails auction I was winning early

"Sorry, if parts are not sold at the right price, it will be returned to the used parts store
and its no loss to me."

I see what your saying. I was bidding on Inspire vent visors, and the actioneer pulled the auction 3 days before it ended. The stupid part is, I was the highest bidder next to the guy who won....BY ONE DOLLAR.

So this guy bids a dollar more than me and then the auctioneer pulls the auction and gives it to him. I'll give that a big 'ol WTF.

Ya that's BS. Those things are so overpriced anyway. And it shouldnt cost $89 to ship those either.

Are you guys talking about the take shop?? i was the winning bidder on those tailights last time.. i paid 235 plus 80 something for shipping. i got them already installed on my car, just need to go wash it too take some pics. I thought they were not a bad deal, but i do know the bidding was between myself and outlaw so there was no scam there. the tails are in nice condition i must admit

That auction we are both bidding on for the inspires didnt get pulled, because everyone was driving the price up, because someone posted abput it. The take shop is fer sure doing this, cause I have been watching inspire tails and also side vents for while now. They will send them too you if you win I am not saying they wont, but they will either run up price through ghost bidding, or will pull the auction early if nobody bids up high enough. I reported them, which means ebay will review all the inspire tails auctions and possibly suspend them for 30 days if they have no reason to pull other than their price is not high enough
