Ok, I am after $9000. Paypal takes a small percent of money being
deposited into the paypal account. So that is why i don't want to
accept paypal payment. Quick sale can be arranged with a bank deposit.

Thanks for your inquiry. Let me know what you think.
Thanks.

Thanks for the mail and i will like to know the present condition of the car. how much you are willing to sell it to me cos i am buying the car as a gift for my dad and i am at sea at the moment as i am a marine engineer and due to the nature of my work,phone calls making and visiting of website are restricted but i squeezed out time to check this advert and send you an email regarding it. I really want the car to be a surprise for my dad so i wont let him know anything about the car until it gets delivered to him , i am sure he will be more than happy with the car.I will paying direct to your bank accoutn , i will need you to give me your account details so i can make the payments asap for the car,i have a pick up agent that will come and pick the car up after i have made the payments.

Thanks and God Bless.

I'm after $9,000 and i'm only going to accept bank deposit or cash on pick up.

ok mate , bank transfer is ok... let me know when you are ready..

Get back to ASAP

SO... never asked a question about the car as in additional information.

If a bank transfer of 9,000 is made into my bank, there is no way this can be un-done by him?

Id have to make sure the transfer was complete, done, and confirmed by commonwealth before this "agent" picks up the car.

Like i said, sounds too good to be true

but providing the bank deposit is made, its cleared and i hand the keys over all will be good?
Doesn't the car have to have the owners names changed over at vic-roads??

Any help much appreciated

... i just re-read his emails.. there is no way this is legit.. thoughts?
