Is this a Scam?

I just found this Ducati 999R for sale at TOO low of a price. http://www.sportbikeshop.com/view.jsp?id=754856

The guy says he has to leave the country, but selling a $30,000 bike for $9,000, just doesn't sound believable. Tell me what you guys think.

Yeap! Most definately a fake. If the guy doesnt offer you to come and take a look at it before you buy its fake. And of course hes in Asia.

BS, they go for LESS then that all the time up here in Seattle. Just make sure you use ESCROW.com
NO OTHER ESCROW sight! Escrow.com is SECURED and insured by E-bay motors.

You think it's legit? I mean we are talking about a limited production Ducati 999R motorcycle! And to add to my suspicion, 999R's began production this year (2004), he states its a 2002 999R. Only the 998's came in an R version. I'm pretty sure that this offer is bogus now that I have looked at the whole picture!

Obie One, they go for less than 9k all the time? You must be confused.

of course it's a scam
do a search for ducati 999r and you'll find the same photo on a magazines website

didn't notice that it didn't even have any rego or 3200 miles worth of wear to a front tyre.

Obieones talkin about 996s guys. I'm in Washington too and everyonce in awhile you'll see a couple of 996s in the Cycletrader go for under ten. I saw a few go for a little over five.

Re: Is this a Scam?

I would send the guy a flood of questions and see what he says.. Try to get several photos, and maybe even a picture of the title. Then ask to look at it, and see what he says.
