Look at it this way - if a seller can get $1,900-$2,000 for a camera why would a legitimate seller in his/her right mind would be willing to sell it to a complete stranger for $1,000 and then he/she will have to pay eBay fees and PayPal fees?
I don't know. Any number of reasons.
1. Needs money fast. The post was up for about 6 minutes. There were 2 available- both gone within 6 minutes, mine paid for immediately.
2. Drug problem.
3. Wanted it off the internet as fast as possible for any number of reasons.
4. Angry wife selling husbands stuff for half it's value or doesn't know the value.
Long story short- Ebay guarantees the transaction so for that price I'm willing to find out if it's real or not. If it is, it's a heck of a nice score. If not I'll open a case, get my money back and buy something else down the line.
If I was a complete fool as a previous poster suggested I would have been looking on Craigslist and sending money via Western Union to some address in Africa. It's incredibly difficult to get away with a scam on Ebay, if not impossible. I've dealt with hundreds of sellers and hundreds of buyers, not been scammed once on either end.
