Ebay item # 3674113750

or this link:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=3674113750&category=22703

I wrote this guy and voiced my concerns over his auction title as well as some terms he uses in his description.

This is totally wrong.

I would think that Ebay themslves wouldn't allow the misrepresentation of the title versus the actual item. PD1

Is it a q? or is it something different?

it has a nice ring to it

Flamingos can only eat with their heads upside down
Dentists have recommended that a toothbrush be kept at least 6 feet (2 m) away from a toilet to avoid airborne particles resulting from the flush.
A human has 60,000 miles of blood vessels in their body.
It takes about 142.18 licks to reach the center of a tootsie pop

I always love these eBay ads written by total illiterates:

"Your are bidding on information where u can get this Segway Human Transporter HT For only 400$! This is not the Matrix thing that you have to wait downside line! this is the real wedsite that you can get the real thing!!"

WTF?

What a loser. This guy needs to be reported to eBay ASAP.

Regrarding the illiterate, did anybody notice his last lot of bogus info sold for $1,550.00?

I sincerely hope the bidder did not pay!

There are a little over six thousand Segway owners!
There are a little over six billion people in the world!
We're two in a million! :)

Yeah, sal... I wonder if it had anything to do with a nice little email I sent him.

Excuses as you'd expect from him, but he got the picture rather quickly. I don't pull any punches when dealing with people trying to scam others. Ebay should be a safe place to do business, free from such scams. I let the guy have it... while I hated to get ugly with the guy, I hated letting him perpetuate this auction under such fraudulent and dubious circumstances.

Maybe I was a little unforgiving on him, but I think he had it coming. I'm not usually such a hard a$$, as you all know!!! ; )

my email to him:

Dear topthis1forme,

What you are selling is NOT a SEGWAY HUMAN TRANSPORTER. This is a FRAUDULENT AUCTION. Why are you doing this? If you don't amend the auction to reflect that this is NOT a Segway, I will report it to Ebay and you'll have to deal with the consequences. Sorry... Ebay should be a place free from scams and cons. I'm not the only one watching this auction... there are hundreds of people who know what you're doing. Consider yourself forewarned!

his reply:

I was not doing anything wrong, If you what to report me then thats your decsion, I spoke with ebay before placing the add, Besides I tried to amend this ad and the site won't let me do it. The revised is not working. Why is revised not working. That is an ebay site problem.

Here was his response to me...

"uess you do not know about this machine. I advise you to do so. THIS IS NOT FRAUD. This is a machine that is just like segway but lower in price. If you have a problem with that then Im soory for you. You must own one to see the difference. "

what a joke...

Looks like this is the Q we've seen advertised, with those back wheels.

Here's one with a photoshopped image, specially made to eliminate the back wheels.

It is bogus! I bought the info now for "12.99", and all it is is a raffle! You pay 7 per ticket and you might get a chance to buy it for $400.00!

thanks,
