Saw this add on Ebay.co.uk must be the cheapest RS ever or is it April fools day...???

If it is a genuine add I wonder what sort of accident history the car has given the asking price and no bids...

Very boring day so fired off an email to him (asked him why the price was so low).... Do they really think people will fall for this..??

Reckon the legitimate dealer is happy about his stock being used as a scam...?!

Answer from the seller:

***********************************
i know the price is very low but i need money urgently .the car is in perfect condition.it has a clear title,no outstanding finance.obviously you want to inspect the car first.unfortunatelly i am currently out of the country and i can,t come back for each buyer who say interested to buy it.thats why i will only will only conclude the transaction through www.escrow-europa.com for our own protection.it is the only escrow company reccomended by ebay.

As soon as i will have the confirmation from www.escrow-europa.com that the funds have been deposited to their account, i will immediately start the shipping process.
The car will be delivered to your address in no more than 10 working days.You will be given a 15 days inspection period from the day you receive the car at home.
If you decide to hold the car, then you will have to authorize escrow-europa to release the funds to me, and the transaction will be completed. If you will not be satisfied with the car, you will be able to send the car back through the same shipping company, and ask Escrow Europa to return the funds to you.
Though i am sure you will love the car and will not want to return it, it is good to know that you do have this second option available.

If you wish to proceed with the purchase please register with www.escrow-europa.com and start a new transaction as a buyer.
