Just why would you bother? Making multiple ads to put on eBay with very erratic unrealistic prices makes no sense to me, not even a feasible scam!

I constantly get these on my saved project search on ebay - totally obvious they are scams as the starting bid is always some odd figure (obviously converted to £ from whatever the currency that the scammer is posting the add in. Got sick of reporting them to ebay (they take them down but they re-appear almost straight away under another seller) - surely anybody with a vague knowledge of the bike they are bidding on will know its a scam
Current Bikes:-
Honda CB750K2 (1975)
Honda CB500K2 (12/1972)
Honda CR750 Replica (1972)
Honda CB350K0 (1969)
Kawasaki ZZR1100D3 (1995)
Kawasaki ZZR250 (1990) Project (Going on eBay ASAP)

Does anyone know of the green 500 that pops up regularly on my feed?

It’s usually £4317 but has been listed every 10 minutes for months (well, seems like it anyway).
