OK, I'll bite. What's the deal??

The pricing, from the little I know about Cannondale, seems ridiculous.

Both thier SquareTrade security icons are dead (not activated) not a good sign. What else?

The image at the top right hand corner is stolen from http://www.performancebike.com/index.cfm.

The squaretrade logo is a plain image, no link.

The prices are unbelievable.;

There's no Sam bicycle in the Helena Montana Yellow Pages, at least not that I could find.

They List Helena, Montana address and phone number. How about verifying phone number from another sourse and giving them a call? I just missed your last post. I see you thought of that.

You pesky skeptics!

How dare you doubt the veracity of a "PLATINUM Powerseller"?

What's more, they have FREE PARKING! Do you know how hard that is to come by in Helena?

Well, it looks like an interesting website. The website looks rather primitive and prices seem low. Also, anyone else notice that all the prices are exact multiples of $100? I also find that a little odd.

I think you should buy one of each. Pronto, before they run out... just send your credit card info ASAP before someone else gets all the good deals.

I just e-mailed Ibexbikes advising them.

I received a reply back from the folks at IBEX:

"It's a scam. These folks run fake listings on eBay and set up temporary websites to make it look legit. They've stolen our feedback time after time for many different fake sites associated w/ different eBay ID's. About the closest anyone can come to catching up with them is to report them to eBay and make them start all over again."

He was thankful for the information. Good catch, Kuan.
