I think the sled community needs to know about this!!!!
I have been following this so called $2900 SkiDoo for awhile now and made the attempt to contact him view email to find out the details. After informing the guy I was interested this is what I received back from him...

Hello again,
I'm glad to see that you are still interested. The sled is in Tallahassee, FL. In order to ensure a smooth and fast transaction, I suggest that we use eBay to handle the exchange. Here's how it works: You will make a $2,900 deposit to eBay, they will hold it in a non interest bearing trust fund (not release it to me). As soon as they receive the deposit from you and confirm it, I will ship the sled over. The shipping will be covered by me. It will arrive in max 5 days and you will have a 7 days inspection and test drive trial to make sure that it really is as advertised. You can check and inspect it without any obligation to buy. Just to make things clear, I will not Have access to the payment until you have received, inspected and approved the sled. I think this is more than fair for the both of us. I can be sure that you are serious about buying and that you do have the funds and you will get to inspect and drive it before I get paid. Should you find that the sled is not what you have agreed upon, you may send it back within 7 days of receipt for a full refund of your money, no questions asked! I agreed to this because I'm sure you will love it. If you agree to the terms and wish to buy, please reply with your full name and shipping address and I will open the transaction immediately. Afterwards, eBay will invoice you the transaction details and payment instructions. All you will need to do is wait for the invoice and follow the instructions in there.
Thank you !

This is a scam and I felt it important to warn the rest of the sledding community because there are plenty of us out there that buy used sleds and look for good deals and put alot of trust in people because we are all typically pretty good genuine people. I will be doing further investigation into this ad and if I can find or tract down a responsible party they will be held accountable for fraudelent and disceptive actions.
