Ok, you guys who are calling this a flip are not looking at this straight. The first ad was a classified with a fixed price. The second is ebay. At the time I read this, there are six bids, and price is only $4,550. Obviously there is time to go on the auction, and it will be bid up. We can't say anything until the bidding hits reserve. If the reserve is significantly over the $7k price (like $11k), then yes, seller is trying to make a profit. But the buy it now means nothing unless someone uses it.
Let's put the torches down, and wait until we see the reserve price. If it's near the original asking price, then I say seller is just trying to get his money back. If it's close to the buy it now, then yes, he wants to turn a profit. Right now, it's impossible to determine that. Not that it's even any of our business. I know for a fact that if I put my rust free California Duster up for $4,000, none of you would buy it. And I'd be loosing money on that.
