You have to email him before you bid because their are "special requirements." $6500 is probably the down payment.

I just e-mailed him and asked what the stipulations were on the purchase and if the price was correct. I'll fill you all in on his response, if he responds.

Ebay is full of these scam ads, every one with a restricted bidder list is one, stay clear !!! its a info gathering scam and could result in idenity theft. These ads get cancelled soon as ebay finds them but there is so many listings it takes awhile sometimes.

Be careful not to give out your email address to the man.....you can not be too careful with these people. I got a ridiculous question once from a guy and after the reply my antivirus software went nuts with 15 to 20 emails from this person. Sometimes scammers put up auctions like this to solicit emails "letting them know they made a mistake" and they run with the email addresses and try to install key loggers and such.....

Too late on that one. Regardless, I'm not too worried about getting a virus thru the address I sent it from, for reasons I won't mention here.
