Default 10K for the right to Buy?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2418339025

10,000 will give you the "right to buy at MSRP" This guy has got to be kidding! So he orders one then cant afford to follow through, so sells his option to someone else? I have not seen this tactic since people had to wait three years to get a Harley. A year from now these trucks(if thats what they are) will be everywhere. Just when you think you have seen it all, someone outdoes the entire concept of Lunacy. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

It is a nice looking vehicle, hope they don't drop a 4 cyl. in it. This is getting to be like salt water fishing , throw some chum [ bloody--bait ] in the water and wait for the feeding/bidding to begin.

Matt; I don't know how to make it clickable, but check out eBay #2412811195 from about 5 weeks ago. Sorta makes $10K over not sound too bad! MSRP is in the mid-40's [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

Steve, That particular one is one of the first 25 available, actually number 2 produced, I saw #1 about a month ago at the GM tech warehouse, so the one auctioned is the lowest VIN ever available to the public. It and the next 24 are whats called signature series, basically a special edition that is autographed by the GM designers involved. While it too may be overpriced, it would still have considerable value over the standard run of the mill production model after that. In comparison, that would be like the difference between a Berger SS Camaro and a new ZL-1. While they are both speciality vehicles, one has an obvious higher value then the other. I am sure this new vehicle is worth 10K more then MSRP at the moment, I just think it is a bit shady the way this seller in this auction is doing this. But, one the other hand, if someone wants the truck bad enough to knowlingly pay the 10K to this guy in order to get a quick delivery, I guess that falls in the catagory of instant gratification, which we have all had from time to time. Much like the Viper, etc, etc, the truck will be worth most likely more than 10K over MSRP in the beginning, but a few months later that xtra 10K will be down the tubes when they become more available. The first 25 signature series should retain a higher value as being known as a limited production model. You gonna get one Steve? These things would look at home in the Nevada desert.
Thanks,
