I have to tell you that I'm currently out of town with some major problems so pick up/view isn't an option. If you want to buy this vehicle email me back with your full name and address to start the official procedure trough PistonHeads. They will send you a notification with ALL the info regarding delivery, purchase protection and refund policy so please provide your details before more questions. BUT LOOKING ST THIS EBAY LISTING HE HAS GOOD FEEDBACK . SO SO QUITE DECIVING . http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MK2-FORD-ESCORT-M ... dZViewItem _________________ Acid Reflux Forum

escortmad79 Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 scam I think, they've realised that everytime they try to scam on ebay it will be pulled so now looking for other sites to scam on. It's been pulled on pistonheads
Mark2Mark Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 Yeah it's a scam, i e mailed him about it he and wrote back saying the car is so cheap because of a family emergency, and that viewing/collection was not possible and that i should contact him through a different e mail address. Strange about the feedback though?
bmxdave Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 Its simple. He will have sold or more likely bought a LOT of things through ebay. Cheap stuff. That way when he tries to scam anyone he doesnt look suspicious.
surfingturnip Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 so a cossie project constitutes a family emergency these days does it?

60ftman Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 On the very bottom left of every ebay item page there is a little link that says 'report this item'. If everyone did that then the scammers would soon get pi**ed off!. DO IT - YOU KNOW IT MAKES SENSE!!!!

FredTransit Posted January 30, 2008 Report Posted January 30, 2008 Why would anybody want to buy something they can't see? OK if you don't want to see it, but not if you positively can't.
