Hi,
I'm new here so not sure where this should go. Ran across a web sight the other day with unreal prices for used tyros 3 and 4. To good to be true stuff. Was wondering if anyone here has also run across it? http://www.olx.com/q/tyros/c-243
They are probably hot.

No way those are legitimate. It's half the price of a T4. Scam alert!
Call Frank or George for best price.

What is also a bit odd is that in the ad. for the $1800 one, those photos are taken in the UK yet the address is given in the ad. as Ohio. That's a very British radiator on the wall, and the plugs in the power-bar look like the large three-pin British style as well. And the name 'johnnsmith'? - hmmm.

The scam on many of these things is that they will offer to pay you by Paypal, or have you pay by Paypal. If you DON'T have Paypal account, they even supply a link for you to set one up.
Of course the link is bogus, they get your bank account number and you are in deep doo-doo.
Same scam is prevalent on Craig's List.
Also, they might just take your money and never ship anything.
