|  Guaranteed funniest scam of the week!!! | Frank121 Apr 19, 2003 6:59 PM | | I received an unsolicited offer through eBay e-mail to buy a Colnago CF3. I responded and the want-to-be seller replied. What follows is his e-mail offer, my reply and question, and his subsequent reply. You couldn't make up stuff like this...you gotta love it!!!!
