A friend of mine emailed me early last week about a Busa deal he'd found on Ebay ($5k for an 03)...I told him that it would pay to join some biker boards and see if he can get guys/gals to check the bike out if they're in the area...I told him that some get good deals on Ebay, and others get screwed...
Long story short, he emailed the guy that had the add on Ebay (supposed to be in Atlanta I believe)...the guy wrote back and said the Busa belonged to his brother that died in a car accident, he needed to get rid of the bike because it was painful to see it, he needed the $5K sent ASAP, and the kicker...drum roll please...the bike would be shipped from Italy as soon as the funds were in hand! Italy?!
Needless to say, my friend thought it was too good to be true...passed it up...just be careful...
