I am wondering.... who is this person????

Was flicking thru EBAY this morning when i noticed 4 of the kinda EXPENSIVE minis actually had bids on em......

mini convertable

mini 1275 LS

the pink mini

blue 68 mini cooper

I was shocked at first. But then when i looked at the bids, i noticed they were all from the same NEW user.... "ninacicco"

Makes you wonder if some idiot has hacked an account and is throwing fake bids at cars for fun, or if there is a rich collector or car yard owner looking for some toys.... i mean, NO ONE bids for 4 cars at once... would they???

Who knows...... but it doesnt seem right. I'll be interested to see how it all ends :shock:

Someone email him and pretend that you're selling a Mini and imply that he is a collector and he might want it.... :lol: See what reaction you get...

Mystery solved. The PINK mini has it's bid retracted, with this added to description:


Q: i have just got on to my e-bay and realised that my 10 year old son has placed a bid on this car, would u be able to disregard this bid. .....answered on: 20-Sep-04
A: Have done as you requested.

oh, bullshit. No 10 year old kid would know how to bid, and only bid on the expensive items... sounds like a cheap cover up.... blame the kid.... WHATEVER
