Ok, sorry about all that, my last asking price is $3500. And it is in great condition.
Would you like to come by and take a look at it?

Him-hi..is really good to hear from you..well i am okay with the price..though is a bit hugh..but never mind..well i will be making payment as soon as possible..cos my mode of payment will be by check..so i will like to know the following..

home adress.

phone number

so the check will be filled with the folowing..


Me-I am only accepting cash for the payment, and it has to be all at once, not over a span of time.  Lets pick a day for you to come by and look at it and then we can go from there. But i am only taking cash, no checks, and the price is paid in full in one day.

[who else but rk]

jus tell him to come to ur house and look at it  how can there be a scam if he has to physicly get it

[Livingmylife93]

thats what im trying to get him to do but i dont want to give out my info and shit if he isnt even going to come or isnt interested

[who else but rk]

give him your phone number and get his and call him

[Jester2893]

I have gotten emails like that were scams and some that weren't dude. Do not accept a check, make sure you don't bring him to your house, meet somewhere.


I do suggest craigslist rather monkey ads though. Put it on craigslist, it will eventually sell. I sold mine for 2400 on there.


Good Luck with 3500. 

[Livingmylife93]

Its on craigslist... I have it on like 10 differant sites 

[Peelz]

If that is him typing that, run.....I hate when idiots don't know their grammar, then try to b.s. their way into a deal.  If you typed all that up yourself

[Krandall]

Based on the typing I think it's RK or Raptorboy messin with ya


Yeah, I say give him your # and tell him to come look at it. Cash only man.

[Jester2893]

Its on craigslist... I have it on like 10 differant sites 

Lower the price grasshopper and it will sell. If kyle couldn't get even 3k then.... I am not trying to be an ass but I know you want to sell it quick, so you have to make people want to buy it.

[Livingmylife93]

Thats all his typing...

[1raptor]

as far as the tying and grammer he may be from out of the country but still be legit but he could also be a scammer like stated above I have also gotten emails from someone that was legit but just didnt speak or type very good english and on the flipside I seem to get the samy shitty grammer from scammers. I would email my phone # to him or ask him for his # and make it clear again that no checks will be accepted and it is pickup only and I bet you never hear from him again.

[socalrappy700]

I say scam.  But just tell him you wont ship it and he has to pick it up with cash ONLY.

[pj4553]

That is 100% a scam. Key words are "item" , "good" and he sounds like a moron. Ask to talk to him on the phone. I bet he won't call you.

Trust me.. Ive sold a million things online and every high ticket item gets a few hits from scammers.

[exentix]

hes more than likely a foreigner lol... his english is gonna sound funny cas the stuff wont translate into the things were used to hearing but that doesnt mean it isnt a scam... just like everybody else says, try and talk to him in person and all that good stuff 

[dick-84]

If he says he can pay by check he must have the money in the bank. So tell him to come with cash in hand! If he dont like that then it is a scam. So cover your ass and dont let him brake the seal.
