No problem, first post realy had nothing to do with it. I just went off the edge a little reading the posts, reacting poorly to the greed aspect today that was all. I greatly enjoy talking with the wonderful people I have met here and elsewhere, and I know that the vast majority of the people here are here in a positive way. Sometimes I just have trouble accepting that small number are just greedy. The last thing I want to see is a long standing frinedship(s) to suffer over what in the end is less impartant.

My crystal ball say's this wont be the last time this happens.
Im still laughing about the guy who posted the ad thinking that he didnt just throw blood in the water.Sharks within a 1000miles can smell the blood.

No problems, I wa a little confused as to what I had done wrong.

Here is the update. The other Iowa guy drove 20 hours last night to pick up the car. Seller gave directions to the car, and never showed. One of two things happened:
1) Car wasn't real and was a total scam or
2) Someone else got to the guy and offered more money.

Either way, this was a bad deal all the way around. Like lots of people have said, too bad we don't have another great supercar find to talk about, regardless if you like the buyer personally or not. I would be curious to see if anyone else has spoken to Sal (the seller). If you do, let him know that you won't be falling for his little game. This scam cost someone 6 days and nearly $1000 for the trip.

Sounds like another weird deal...you can't help but wonder what the motive is...you never know....could be an attempt to whack someone on the head and grab some cash...easier than the local 7-11.

I know I don't post much here but as the old saying goes "If the deal is too good to be true it probably is!". It all sounds like BS to me!

I can see the Soprano's getting involved in this now!

Apparently someone else had a trailer and cash there yesterday and the Seller mysteriously dissappeared when it came time to go see the car. Sounds like no one actually ever saw the car or any paperwork. It sure has made for an exciting weekend following the blow by blow. Pretty bizarre turn of events. Maybe it's not over yet??

I think there should be a Mickey Spilane section......
