this string of crap posts pops up every few months. The posts are usually pulled pretty soon after they go up.
I'm trying to figure out what this guy's MO is. He can't be that dumb as to know that few folks would be dumb enough to bid on these horns, especially with 0 feedback. Or is he? Or are there such dummies out there? He (or she for all we know) goes to all the trouble of posting. What gives?

This last group appears to have a U.S. listing. There was a run of these ads from Great Britain. For a joke I bid the 1 Pound opening bid and received an email back via eBay to the effect that he could ship it to me immediately if I wired him the money directly (no PayPal, etc.) and a great price (~$1,000). And to answer the question, yes there are people so blinded by greed that they ignore the danger signals on such a deal.
They call themselves victims; I prefer the less generous term of "Idiot"

I am very certain he typed this with great love in his heart.

Ray is right. I meant to say "Idiots, bless their hearts."

As long as you're far enough south, that's OK then...
