I wonder how many people don't read the whole thing and think they are bidding on the bike? not the RIGHT to buy the bike http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1869984475 
I'm sorry but I hate this: ebay item

"You are bidding on the right to purchase this bike. I ordered a long time ago from the dealer. ***You will need to pay the dealer plus your ebay bid amount.*** Wire transfer to dealer and myself. Price does not include cost of delivery".
Unbelievable

e bay vrod
If their so damned stupid as not to fully read before placing a bid for a expensive motorcycle then shame on them. It clearly states "the right to purchase" down the page. It further states "you must pay ebay fee and dealer" to purchase, how much clearer must one be? Or maybe the dumb a$$ is willing to pay $34,000+ for a "aniversary 2003 VROD". ROFL.

It may go against policy but I went ahead and e-mailed the $10,300 high bidder. He replied back and was very thankful so obviously he didn't read the whole add. I'm not going to e-mail anymore of them though, you can't save everybody. The worst thing that could happen to a buyer is they get a negative comment when they retract their bid.n8370c said:

I felt sorry for the guy and then as soon as I sent the heads up I felt like I just stuck my nose in somebody elses business.
Oh well, I bet we see this one re listed after the auction ends because of the high bidder backing out
Okay, it's up to $15,300! I can't believe people bid that kind of money without even reading the entire auction they're bidding on. I've bought and sold a bike on ebay and both when I bought and I when I posted my auction to sell, I scrutinized every damn word! And that was for 2 grand motorcycle, not a 20 grand one!

I don't know what it would be called, but there has to be something illegal about this. I'm all for making money but this is crazy. This guy wants $15,000+ for nothing. I think I will place my own ad: You are bidding on the right to keep your next paycheck....
ebay fools
As I stated before, anybody who bids on any item of substantial cost such as this VROD and fails to read every word, all the conditions of sale is a damn FOOL. And if they have read conditions and still bid $5000+, they are obviously too ignorant to manage any appreciable sums of currency, enter into any contract. Its not deceptive, it states clearly its the "opportunity to purchase", and ebay bid and dealer must be paid $24000+. It is somewhat opportunistic but as the man said above, "there's a sucker born every minute". I think I'm going to list on Ebay the "opportunity to wash a VROD", minimum bid $1000. Some of those ebay fools would probably run that up too.
