Question: Buying a car online advice?
I am interested in buying this car from a guy i have been in contact with.
He is in the military and was shipped to the UK, he bought his car in florida, and says he can ship it to me for free to CA.
Will that cost me alot? to get the the car in my name and the license plates and all that? the taxes? how does that all work?
Answer: You are in the midst of a scam.
The car was not on EBay, but on Craigslist, AutoTrader or some other classified website.
the car was priced well below others of the same yr/make/model
The owner is out of the country – or at least across country from you
There is a long story about why it is so cheap (job transfer, divorce, dead uncle).
He is offering to ship the car for free
You will use “EBay Protection Service” to conduct the transaction so that you are “safe”
You will transfer money to this bullshit eBay agent
They hold the money until the car gets there.
You have 3/5/10/14 days to inspect it.
If you accept the car, notify the Agent and he releases money to the seller
If you refuse the car you get all the money back
If you refuse the car, the seller will pay for return shipping.Right?
read this forum. Look at how many times this is asked and answered.
Ebay NEVER handles money
They also have a payment center – PayPal that handles all eBay transactions. Why would eBay want a wire transfer when they own a processing service?You have to use your head.
View from the Borderland: A call for alternative energy in Brandon’s suburbs
Economists and peace activists have long pointed out that the true cost of oil-based energy is not adequately accounted for or paid by us consumers: the pollution it generates, the treatment for diseases it necessitates, the environmental damage that needs to be ameliorated, and the military presence we provide in order to ensure our oil supplies all have costs that are not on our utility bills.
