Too good to be true?

 

You see the odd deal like this, if your interested in the car take a good look at the body and chassis, look for hole's and rust spots....if none are found then it's a great deal.
Keep in mine you will likely drop another 3-4 k on the car in the near further....Make him a offer

 

Wow, if it's true, that's not bad.........

 

looks like a scam, the Mitsubishi in front does NOT have an Ontario plate.

( but then again it can be a visitor , if true, someone will pick up a great deal )

 

Thanks, guys. I don't have the money this year, but somebody might get a good deal.

 

Honestly im looking at it and can get the money but hes hasnt gotten back to me as of yet... It really seems like a scam tho cause the eclipes's plates and the speedo looks like its in miles aposed to kms but who knows?

 

Just remember it's always a wise move to send him paypal funds because he is out of the country or just too busy to show you the car. I ran in to a few of those guys

 

What do ya mean bud? Paypal cover you if you get scammed?

 

Why would you be sending any money, it says the car is in Hamilton....I'd be wanting to look at the car first before talking any kind of payment

 

Double_J is just making a joke....i've you've advertised a car for sale, then you likely have had scammers from overseas asking you to do rediculous things

 

Oh i didnt get it :P Yea ive been calling to get some questions answered and see when there available for me to come take a peak but no response via email and none of my calls answered.

 

looks like a sweet deal if its in good shape

 

Sounds too good to be true. I'll bet when someone final communicates with the seller he'll be overseas and ask please send me a couple of grand to ship or secure the car. It's the old buyer beware, if it's sounds too good to be true, it isn't.

 

Lol yea... His number is in Ontario tho. Too bad know one answers it and theirs not answering machine... If they ever do pickup or email me back ill keep you guys posted.

 

this is the reply that i got (via email) from the seller....sigh!!


Hello,
First of all I want you to know that the car is still for sale, fully operational, no scratches or other damages and never involved in any accidents, the engine runs great,non-smoker. It has all the papers and documents available, the Vehicle Information Package and also don't forget that the car is certified and e-tested.The shipping and handling are included in the price (only in Canada) and it takes 2-3 working days. The car is located in Canada (Nova Scotia) but currently I am located in London, United Kingdom,because I have some business to resolve here, I want to open a PUB here with my wife. There is misprint my price is $5,500.
I will wait your answer very soon and I will also explain to you all terms for this transaction.

Thank you.

 

Just heard of a running R1 go for $3500 in michigan.

just food for thought.

 

The seller's reply sounds more than a little fishy to me.

Why is the car listed in Hamilton? What the heck does shipping and handling involve?

 

That Reply Smells SOOOOO Much like a Damn Scam!
Honestly,If I can't see the Car and the Owner in ONE place, I don't even think about Buying.
There are alot of "deals" out there,But I can't put money into someone's hand...I look elsewhere.
OH!..By the way,IF is was HIS Car,then why would he say that it is a FRONT WHEEL DRIVE?

 

Scam!!!

 

yep 100% scam

 

If you get a paragraph like that, dont even think twice. Ive had my experiences with these scams too.

 

LOL, that's the same template for all high-value purchase scams. Replace car and car info with PS3 and PS3 info and you got a completely different ad.

 

same kind of bullshit scam over and over and over....

i guess people fall for it, otherwise it wouldn't be happening

Totally a scam, but if you really want to call his bluff, I'm in Nova Scotia (so I can go check it out for you) and I have a bunch of family in London, England who could probably get the paperwork in person.
BTW, for a car supposedly in Nova Scotia, it's not advertised for sale down here.

 

yea, lets call his bluff...(lets play him a bit).
where about are you (town etc etc...)??
