A: HI THE BUY IT NOW IS 3,200.00 SHIPPING IS 100% FREE WITH BUY IT NOW!


This car is currently located in TAMARAC, FL . . . Free Shipping to Oregon?

It does have chromed stock rims, I wonder if he bought them from Dayle?

Doesn't sounds fishy to me. The car was probably purchased at auction for less than 2 grand. Depending on the deal he has from his shipper, he might still be able to make $700-$1,000 on the deal.

Yeah, it was probably bought at auction for nothing. And I didn't see anything about how long you might have to wait for delivery. Still, if that thing had a clean Carfax...

Then again, sales copy with so many exclamation points unsettles me. It's like he's screaming. I mean, screaming!!!

I agree. The Buy It Now price is more that shipping costs over the real value of the vehicle. If the transaction is completed thru Ebay it is covered by Ebay's Vehicle Protection Program as long as it meets the program standards.

Notice how he doesn't take any close ups or any close ups of the driver's seat. And he thinks that the car has a V6 when it clearly does not.

Those rims have certainly been messed with....

Needs a radiator? Why?
