I see ebay already pulled one of them already. But the scammers are getting better...at least this one doesn't have an automatic, towing package or 4 wheel drive. :eek:

I gotta tell ya....he is very prompt on his e-mail replies!
He must really want to sell the "car". Here is the response from my email that I sent him:::::::::
Hi,
The car is in perfect conditions without any scratches or other mechanical problems.I will pay the shipping cost and you will pay the money transfer comision.I live in FRANCE.The car has a Clear Title wich you will receive it with the car.It can be registerd into your name.You will get all the papers and recipts that you need for the registration.I will ship the car via Lufthansa Airplane Cargo.I bought this car from US but when i tried to register the car in my country they said that i can't register a car that has US emissions.I sell it so cheap because i can't find a buyer in my country.I want to sell it in US because the car is titled there and it can be easy register in any state from United States.I hope you understand this situation.So if you really want it please give me an email as soon as possible.
Thank you!:::::::::

Maybe I will keep playing with him..I don't know.

Try and make dumb deals with him.

Tell him you will send him a check that you stopped payment on and you will un do the stop payment when the car is deliverd in the condition it is advertised in (I did this and he never e-mailed me back)

In todays environment, if you dont treat everything as a scam until proven otherwise you will get hosed on a daily basis, whether its buying a car, getting work done on one, info-mercials, fine print (that you cant read) on t.v., etc. Most people dont read the daily news paper once without seeing reference to someone getting scamed.. Watch out for those pop-ups!!!

Checked both adds - both are coming up as "invalid." Guess e-bay pulled them. Unfortunately, you do have to be on your guard in this day and time; let's say cautiously optimistic?!!
:shocked:
