I picked up a community paper today and noticed an ad for a 1972 Challenger. 50,000 miles, $3000
So I do a google search on the phone number (928)832-7235 and notice he has the car listed in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Wisconsin, Illinois, California, etc etc etc.
The car that's pictured looks badass, so I'm wondering what the deal is here. He's got it listed in multiple states, in a lot of community papers, it's dirt cheap. Something doesn't add up......:confused

ahhhh, i shoulda known!

Hello,
Sorry for the delayed response,I have been very busy .
Anyway,I'm glad that you're interested in my '72 Dodge . The car is street legal and accurate and has US papers. . It comes with all the documents needed for registration, it has a clear title and it can be registred into your name at any time. I am willing to sell it for $3000.This buy now price does include the shipping and insurance fees. I'm located in Stowe,VT and the car is here as well and so this is where the car will be shipped from. I've done some research and the best and fastest way I can ship it is using Hemisphere cargo Shipping Ltd which takes between 5 to 6 days to arrive at your door (door to door handling and shipping insurance fee included). I am affiliated with Yahoo! Finance where I have a purchase protection account for $ 10,000.00. This service allows us to complete this transaction in a manner that is quick and safe for both of us. It acts as a third party between seller and buyer to insure that both parties comply to transaction requirements and provides dispute resolution and mediation between parties. Yahoo! Finance is responsible to insure that both parties comply to transaction requirements. If this is ok with you please reply with your complete name, address and shipping address in your next email and let me know if you are interested in knowing more details about this purchase so that I can open a transaction case at Yahoo! Finance and move forward with this deal.
Thank you,
Roma Monroe

I had the same thing happen on a 2001 ss camaro with 50k. They wanted 4500 but the car would be shipped anywhere in the world for that price, once I paid for it...lol

Here's my response to his bullschit email. Obviously he never bothered to respond.

Thanks for the reply. I can be there tomorrow or sunday to pick up the car, cash in hand right now. If you could give me your address and a time I can meet you, that would be great.
Thanks
