Default Re: Bought - Sight Unseen.

I was just surfing through Graysonline one night at work and came across a pretty tidy Volvo XC90 with a few hours to go. Research showed me a good one with mid range K's was in the mid $50's. Thought I could get it for a good price, tidy it up and the flog it for a profit.

All I had was the auction description and a few photos. Took a chance, bid and won it on a Wednesday night. Flew to Sydney early Friday morning with my 9yo son, picked it up and drove straight home with it. Just needed a new (second hand) fog light and reflector for RWC. All up with flights, fuel, rego, fees etc it cost me just under $30K and is insured for $55K....haha

Problem now is my wife really likes it and wants to keep it.
