BEWARE! I once won the bid at £1250 for a honda integra engine in an advert like this - it was a scam - just look at the feedback score - and the
wording 'pay within 24 hours or we will continue the bid'.
BEWARE.

The muppet even used the same text, inc mileage, for both engines and the same account.
You don't get the same class of scam artist these days. In my days they at least had a pencil moustache and drove a Jag.

He intimates that it's listed twice so he can keep the bidding going if you don't pay him within the 24 hours stated. I don't think
it's so much of a scam but it's not exactly gentlemanly!
