I was looking on CL for "EC 300", and this came up:
http://georgia.findanycycle.com/motorcycles/2005-gas-gas-ec300us-2-700hydraulic-clutch.html
I e-mailed the guy, and this was his response:
Hello and thanks for your interest,
The bike is still for sale and is in excellent condition as you can see from the pictures.
Some minor plastic scratches,no accidents or any kind of damage and it has a clear title.
If you are interested in buying it, the price is $2,700 and this is with shipping costs to your location included. I'm selling the bike because I can't use it due to my new job (I work as a casino dealer on a cruise ship) and I don't have anyone in the US to whom I can give it.
All documents, including owner's manual, clear title and a bill of sale on your name will be provided along with the bike.
Also about payment and shipping I will use only eBay Vehicle Protection Program so we can both be protected.
If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through eBay.
I am looking forward to hear from you.
Thank You,
H.Perkins
He sent some generic photos along with it, looks like the photos were taken out west, while the ad was posted from GA.
Very clever scam! I've seen the same thing before with a ridiculously-priced Toyota Landcruiser. I wonder how much $$ this stuff generates?
