Anyone lose a pack?

[mattm94]

Saw this brandy new pack and duplex frame, and due to the description and pictures, thought there was a slim outside chance someone found it missing from where is was supposed to be recently.

Interesting that the same bidders will keep bidding it up when noone else has bid higher. I'm not a user of ebay on a regular basis. Is this a normal thing?

I didn't think a Kifaru pack in a fairly new color, and the newest generation duplex, showing up without a detailed description to match, seemed normal. Maybe all is on the up and up, but my gut said maybe not so I posted it here.

Aron or someone in the know more then I can say but it looks to be a prototype frame, the lumbar pad doesn't look like the new frames.

I saw it and was questionable as well.

Could be the pack Ryan Callaghan had stolen from his vehicle right before the season started. He's a first lite guy, so it kind of adds up.

It is the new frame and in fusion. This is certainly fishy.

Usually, you can see the same bidders trying to outbid each other, so it is possible. I don't know if it could be the "seller" trying to jack up the bid by bidding higher than the previous guy. If no one outbids him, then I guess we will see it listed again later on Ebay.
The seller is out of Boise, Idaho and has over 2800 sales on Ebay with an almost 100% satisfaction rate. Could be legit..

I have been watching this and there is something odd about it. It seems as though they know nothing about the pack. The people that buy these packs know. The seller may be a pawn shop or something, so maybe they have good feedback, but that doesn't mean there isn't something fishy with this item. I smell a rat.

Pretty normal.
If you place one bid then it lists the minimum for that bid even if your final bib is higher. So when someone looks at it they only see the one bid...so they bid and then Ebay counter bids for you up to your max bid.

By the same person placing several bids with no other bidders it's way of showing that your bid is higher then the min posted.

There was somebody else here that posted a thread recently about someone breaking into his garage and stealing everything including a Kifaru pack. Not sure where he was from.

Been watching this one too - too little info and seems like they really don't have a clue what they have. Just noticed they are a small Ebay shop/Pawn shop out of Boise Idaho.

Even if it is stolen, there isn't a serial number so nothing to say it is stolen or has just been sold a few diff times on forums. It is weird that is for sure but until Kifaru starts to serialize our packs not much you can do if it isn't legit.

This was Ryan's looks like a match to me

If it's some kind of pawn shop or consignment store he should have the current owners information

Ya, even has no pouch on the left side.. I know that's not proof but who doesn't wear a pouch on that side lol

 

[jm1607]

If Ryan thinks it's his pack he needs to contact the seller first (see if he has any more info on it or is in on it or is helpful in any kind of way).. Then, contact local police and have them file a report through Ebay here: http://pages.ebay.com/securitycenter/LawEnforcementCenter.html

Looks like the camo pattern is an exact match,, every thing made from camo will be a little different as the material comes off the roll and is not cut exactly the same for each unit. I would be contacting the police and the seller.

I sent Ryan an email a couple hours ago and he is all over it. I wouldn't be bidding on this one...
