🚨Buyer Beware: Shell Wrecker & Disabled Firebird Auction

[biddle]

Whenever I see an auction title with "READ" in all caps, my alarm bells go off. Usually, it’s shorthand for "this is broken or damaged," and personally, I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole.

• Conveniently Blurry Photos: The seller managed multiple clear shots of the non-damanged front pillar, yet the damaged side is a crappy photo.
• 3D-Printed Swaps: The entire chassis of the disabled car is a 3D-printed replacement, not an original part. Even the tow hook is a printed knock-off.
• Frankenstein Parts: This is supposed to be a Shell Wrecker, which features a complex lighted chassis with internal gearing for the flashing lights. Instead, this one has been swapped with a basic, non-lighted US-1 chassis . This wrecker has no lights at all!

This is a perfect example of why you have to scrutinize every pixel of a photo. Even when the description is a wall of hard to read "ALL CAPS" text.

If it looks like a hack job, it probably is.

This chassis is not going to run well without the weight from the lighting assembly. All tires and oil in the world is not going to help this one.

The bidding is up to 221.00 now with 3 days left. Pure insanity!

People don't read the description and gonna be pissed when they run the wrecker it has no lights and it won't even pickup and drop off the disabled car properly because it's also missing a weight.
