So, he's not able to open the crate to give you the VIN number to make the sale?

So, he bought it new but just can't find his paperwork to find the VIN number to make the sale?

So, he's willing to sell it at a fracton of the cost to get the money NOW, but not willing to do these simple VIN # checks?

You'll find the "best" liars always have a reason that "could" be true - very far fetched but remotely possible.

Maybe he really doesn't want to get married!

Scam, Scam, Scam, Scam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe you shoud try that for yourself and get the thing and sell it on the street for double

I would, but : I already have enough stuff to take care of, I have no interest in going THAT fast anymore, I couldn't scrape up enough for a downpayment at the moment even IF I was interested, I'd hate to have to leave something that expensive outside permanantly (garage and shed are full except for temporary storage). On the outside chance it's for real, it would live in the garage just long enough to be shipped to it's new home or picked up.

I emailed the guy and he told me he was for sure the real deal and all this and that. He would need to pre-approve me to purchase it. I then get an email from eBay saying they received notification that I had been contacted by him and that he was under investigation for fraud. So I guess there we have it. Scam.
