hmmm yeah he sure answered my question
me: yeah so could i get a vin number off the car please?
should be 17 digits...
dave
VIN Number:1G1YY22G015100467
33866 miles
The car has WA clear title.
The price with all fees included is 17762 dollars.
there will be no other fees because the car has US title and there will be no import
fees or customs.
As long as we are useing the escrow service we are both protected,
and you will have 10 days inspection period before the funds are released to me.
Grant
isnt that a lil bull **** nowhere in the ad does it say oh yeah ill have to charge u 1200 dollars to ship it and the real price is 17 something...which is still very cheap for that year of vette with that few of miles. but what was up with beating around the bush for so long just to give me the vin number.
i ran the carfax and it checked out but something just seems fishy with this guy.
