Seller has 0 feedback.

Item is in China.

Will ship to the US for only $23.00.

Extremely low starting bid.

Expect shipping to take a long time.

I'm certainly not getting any good vibes from this auction.
Also I doubt that jack-0-lanterns are in china.

already have....did not work out. Luckily the guy scammed a lot of guy and one was a lawyer. Although we never saw a penny back several of us paid with postal money orders so the guy was charged and convicted through US Post master with mail fraud.

Just added this one to my stable! Picking it up Monday, hopefully.:) :D :) Looks like a decent deal with a speed changer?
