SCAM ALERT Massive Price Drop XP Deus Full With 11" coil

Post by frogeye »

Just noticed a massive price drop in the XP Deus Full 3.2 with remote & 11" coil on an auction site
Two sellers have it listed at £799 x; I wonder if there has been a drop in price by XP :-/
Its the best price I have seen not sure if the main dealers can match that price. Or maybe it is the main dealers .

Being in the market for a deus , I did take a look at this , he has 6 for sale with no takers as yet .
To good to be true in my opinion , maybe that's why I never get a bargain though .
Not taking the chance .

Seems to be two different sellers with them listed at that price. One has more than ten the other has six.

Sorry but I am having trouble with my PayPal account at the moment can you please pay by Bank Transfer, it is really safe and easy to do, or by Western Union etc.etc.

You will probably get a reply along these lines if you purchase one.

before anyone buys i would ask for a serial number and check with xp to make sure they are genuine, they are using paypal so you will be protected. if they ask for other means of payment as machinist said then forget it and report to ebay even if you have clicked buy now ;)

Two sellers?
Or the same person operating two accounts to try to make it look a more realistic price, i.e. if two people are selling it there must be a price war!
Stay clear is my advice.

Does Paypal not have a £500 limit too?

The one seller has positive feedback for mainly low cost items, I would definitely treat with caution or offer to collect in person.
