 I agree. That was a lame attempt to defraud. I mean 
what kind of an idiot would pay $15,000 without first making 
arrangements 
  
to view the sub in person and see the title and 
papers on it? But then again...it only takes one foolish person.  
  
Kindest Regards,

  That's really a shame. It seems that if these 
  businesses would be more  aggressive about tracking down and prosecuting 
  these cretins, fraud and  attempted fraud wouldn't be so 
  rampant.
  So... this "papahound25" had no submarine, no nothin' -- just 
  a picture  of your submarine and an eBay account, and was going to see if 
  he could  get somebody to send him a check? That sounds like an awfully 
  blatant,  transparent, amateurish fraud. Not-so-sneaky.
  People 
  really annoy me.
