He's still pm'ing me bs. I seen where he told one guy it's for a '95, he pm'ed me that it was for a '01 guess what year my car is. You too could find it with a 'view recent posts' search on my profile. said he can take credit card at first.
He said I could pick it up, it's about an hour away, maybe I'll get robbed.

Just a heads up, when I went to bed he was searching WTB ads, when I woke up he was still doing it.

BTW I actually came back to this to delete it. Partially due to the last comment you said to me then locked my thread.
In actuality, I really don't care if the guy rips everyone off.
He's not getting anything from me.

Well decide for yourselves I guess. Maybe I'm prejudice-he types like a foreigner.
You might as well do away with the wait 6 months and 50 posts rule if no one enforces this kind of activity.

Ok maybe he's not trying to rip people off, but this (seriously like the 25th PM I got from him today) just sounds funny.
I wonder if it's for a transmission, tranny, I warranty you long time
Either way, if selling by searching WTB ads is ok, then get rid of the 6 month 50 day rule.

If people don't do their own work on a seller as you have, they need to take time to educate themselves on how not to get ripped off.

Member turbot78 is the issue here though no one can say for certain they are a scammer.
