Sure smells like one.

Yes it probably is - try googling the email address....interesting result....

 

[simon ess]

Very interesting.

I've reported both items.

There's a smart tv too for the same price!

Yes it is defo a scam

I messaged another ebay account the other day with exactly the same listing. Informing them that I think theyve been hijacked. he messaged me back saying he had.

I've been on a bit of a mission.

D4's and D800 seem to be the most popular ones

There was a £35k Hasselblad recently from the same people. For some reason they always offer it as buy it now for £1600 if you phone them. There is a thread somewhere with various others they have put up.

Well, they're nothing if not persistent.

It now seems to have been removed.

This ones popped up again. Why do they keep using the same photos

Well, all we can do is report them when we see them.

I reported this one last night. I just looked to see whether eBay had taken it down, but now I'm really confused. Somehow the URL redirected me to here:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/24-70mm-f-2-8-af-s

Is that happening to anyone else? What's going on?

I think it's because the specific listing has been removed and eBay gives a list of similar items instead. But I've just realised the original item was for a D4 so I'm talking through my backside.....
