I know I saw this Ty around the forums but didn't see the thread..cheap deal for someone local up there. Sounds too good to be true.

I think they missed a one on the front of that price tag. If it was closer and that price was real it would be in my driveway...

I saw that last and was thinking the same thing.

It looks like the one that is on ebay for $7500. There was a thread, but I don't see it either.

I sent him a message to get some more information about the truck. It looks to be in good shape, but I am curious whether it has been through the importing process.

Scam?

Here is the response. Careful on this one. My spidey senses are tingling.

Hello,
This car has absolutely no mechanical problems,no accidents,the engine has no leaks or problems.The car comes with a valid E-test and was just recently certified.
I am letting it go with shipping and handling included. The car is now in Winnipeg, Manitoba, ready to be delivered to its buyer with all the documents.
Because I am not able to close the deal myself( I work a lot, 12 hours daily), I want to use a third party to handle the sale. This way we are both protected.
Let me know if you're interested and if you have questions.
Thank you,
Dianne"

I'm in Winnipeg, so if you need me to do anything let me know. There was a prior posting about this one already. Was listed on kijiji for sale in British Columbia with a Manitoba phone #.

Bingo.
Anyone know how to mess with someone like this?

"Hello ,
Please let me explain to you how this works. You will have to make the payment to Amazon Payments. The shipping will be started in 24 hours after your payment is confirmed. The car will be delivered in 3 or 4 days. From the moment it arrives at your door, you will have 5 days to test and inspect it. If it doesn't match my description or if you find anything wrong with it, Amazon Payments will refund your money is 3 working days and I will be in charge of the return shipping fee. They will hold the money until you confirm that the car is as expected.
This way we are both protected. I am sure that you have the funds to buy it and you can verify that the car is as advertised knowing that a 3rd party has the payment secured.
In order to start the transaction, please click here to go on (AmazonPayments) and register, once you do that, Amazon Payments will send you the invoice with all the payment and shipping details.

Thank you"

x2. Fishy. Big deal you work 12 hours a day. You have time to answer emails? third party...feh. :bored:

Plus...a lot of scams use women's names. True. Because people trust them more.

This is the truck with the giant rain guards which we previously talked about. (ebay?)

That sounds great! I can't tell you how excited that I might finally get a chance to buy one of these things! I have friends and family in Winnipeg. What would be the easiest way for them to come and take a quick look at this truck?

Like I told you I work a lot, 12-14 hours daily. He can't go to the shipping company to see the truck because they will not allow inspection without my presence.
I have a contract with Amazon so this deal must go through them. If you want to buy it you have to know that once you receive it you have 5 days to test drive it and inspect it and if you find that it is not like I said, you can send it back on my expense. But I'm sure that won't be the case.
This is how Amazon works: you make the payment to one of their agents via bank to bank transfer and then they tell me it is ok to start the shipping process, which will take no more then 3,4 days. They hold the money until you inspect the car and tell them that you will keep it. Then they will transfer the money under my account, otherwise you just get it back.
In order to start the transaction, please click here to go on (AmazonPayments) and register, once you do that, Amazon Payments will send you the invoice with all the payment and shipping details.

Ahh ok. That makes sense. Honestly, I can come and pick it up. I have a truck, trailer and don't mind the drive. Would you discount the price if I come and get it?

What does your schedule look like next week? I can be at your place, cash in hand, at your convenience. Any time next week, day or night. Again, I am super excited to get this truck!

B.C listing but a Manitoba phone number.

Just called Jason and he sounds legit. It's in B.C. and he is in Winnipeg. He bought it from Japan in 2008. It was registered in Manitoba, but driven with a dealer plate.
