Item Description Condition is good. Since it is a used item, it is in good condition overall, although there are some damages and stains.

$400 is still insane for a rusty frame.

That seller has a higher rating and looks a bit more legitimate.

I didn't say who, just that someone is lying/scamming. was weird seeing 2 accounts with the same photos of the same bike frame. stickers and rust spots and all

Lucky Cat's posting is likely related to money laundering. Pics are stolen and asking price is so detached from reality it's been diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder. OP if this item is still listed, report it to ebay as fraud, (stolen pics/money laundering/fraud,) and link the page that Bluegrass_Addict has in their post. https://www.ebay.com/itm/277550623493

Edit: I tried to report and I get: We ran into a problem. Please try again later. God EBAY is such trash.

Interesting. In the last couple of hours, the description has changed. Now the seller is calling it a Devinci Enigma 4500. Devinci is a Canadian bike company and they had an enigma model about 30 years ago.

You are correct, lucky cat's listing and price hasn't changed, https://www.ebay.com/itm/306190026974 , but if you scroll way down they did change the model to Devinci Enigma 4500.

I 100% believe this is a scam seller involved in money laundering. If seller is really based in Japan, My yakuza sense is tingling.

Just a frame for 6k?

Good condition?

Which one is more funny?

Some high end racing frames go for that much brand new, but this clunker looks a bit like the cheap 10 speed I had when I was a teenager.
