Haven't seen an R10 scam on eBay in awhile...

[Edwood]

Until now.

Seller hasn't responded to my question about what the serial number is, and the fact that he probably stole those pics.

Unless he happens to be a Head-Fi member.

Given the fact that the bidders list is private, smells like a scam to me. Might as well be payment only by Western Union.

Ha-ha, his head-fi link is down. 's'probably the first good thing to come out of head-fi's down-ness.

You should report it. I would, but my link is at work, and I'm too lazy to look it up right now.

I wouldn't touch it. The seller's feedback is nothing out of the ordinary on a superficial level, but like you said, edwood, the private bidding does smell fishy. Even if he accepts Paypal, they will only give you $200 in compensation. That will hardly cover the cost of a replacement headband, for example.

[APureSound]

Those pictures have been used before so it is 99.9999995% a scam.

[Elephas]

I think I've seen those photos before.

The seller replied to me:

"Hello! The serial number is 11XX.I am curently on a business trip. I'll reach back home on Saturday. Be sure I will provide more photos to the winning bidder if he/she will request. Don't worry. The headphones are mine and are in my possesion. Good luck bidding! Best regards, Ben"

There's another R10 on eBay. Item number: 140179483071

[DoomzDayz]

never used, eh?

[909]

i had thought the same thing.

Speaking of scams the Stax SR-Omega scam is back. I love this part

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

I WILL HAVE THEM PROFESSIONALLY PACKED AND BOXED.

THANKS FOR LOOKING AT MY FIRST ONLINE AUCTION.

while the last picture clearly says the serial number no.249 and those are owned by Morphschi.

Seller never responded to me since I asked for pics of the serial #.

Now that Austrian one look a lot more legit.

Wonder if someone will fall for this scam.

I ask for pictures with a white paper with his name and date on it. He said he'll send those after auction's end.

We want mass production MDR-R10!

Always a sure sign of a scam.

I think they were called MDR-CD3000.

It will have, "Sucka!" written on it.
