    Well i think we all know that you couldnt buy a 150 4 stroke yamaha for under 6k like they are saying so would be 99% sure that it would be a scam.

    Bu tthen again after further looking it does have a number and address so might be legit.. dunno give them a call

    I think if on the level they could do a lot of business with Ausfish members. Contact them and work through your concerns. ..would be in their interest to instill some confidence with site members.

    When you google for ABN it gives you 100200300 so I checked and it doesn't exist.

    No way in hell I'd give him money without sighting an outboard. Scam for sure in my books. "W/o a paid order I won't be able to search, locate and move the outboard" . Should read "with receipt of paid order I will disappear, moving your money with me. Good luck in your search to locate me, your money or an outboard."
