New ZX10R for sale on TM, going, going....

[Da Bird]

This is one weird auction... thought it might be a sham but person has 100% feedback.

Was up to $116.00 10 minutes ago (had hit reserve), then went up to $1200.00 and now back down to $500.00.

Something very strange going on.

According to the Busa thread, it may be a case of account hijack, hence the 100% feedback.

Not good press for Trademe.

[Jeff Sichoe]

Why is it TradeMe's fault some guy a- can't keep his PW secure, or b- allowed someone else access to his account?

Unless of course this is some site-wide security issue...

Didn't say it was Trademe's fault, just said it's not good press for them.

yeah, notice the Shelby Mustang in the pictures - a very rare car in this part of the world...

[sAsLEX]

[Ixion]

Yes. Right at the bottom "Report this listing"

[Squeak the Rat]

So maybe I shouldn't have replied to the TradeMe email with my username and password? They said they were updating their records.....? :innocent:
