TerryB 2,929 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Danger Danger abandon ship! This Craigslist post is soon going to fall into the dark abyss that holds other ones like it, and it needs to happen really quick! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
kingrudy 332 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Tread very carefully on this one. If it seems too good to be true....... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
58L-Y8 1,889 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 If they look too good to be true, its a scam and should be flagged for removal. Link to post Share on other sites
deac 132 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I cannot take this post seriously. It has to be a scam! Link to post Share on other sites
pkhammer 325 Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Yes, most likely a scam but hey, maybe it's like the story of the $1,500 Hemi 'Cuda or however the story goes...........🤑 or maybe it was a Superbird....🤔 Link to post Share on other sites

auburnseeker 4,786 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Odd they mention nothing about engine or tranny, which is the number one thing guys check first in a Vette. Even in less than perfect shape 27,500 is project money not completed turn key car. Wording seems a little strange at the start as well. My guess is 98.9 % chance it's a scam. Yeah if you are nearby might be worth the look. Definitely want to see the paperwork as well and match the tags to it. Link to post Share on other sites
neil morse 1,669 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I doubt very strongly whether you would be offered a "look." The only thing this "seller" has for you to look at is the photos, you can be sure of that. Link to post Share on other sites
JamesR 1,087 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I don't know...haven't you heard that old Corvette story (joke)? A rich man left his wife for a younger woman. After several months, he called his wife and said, "My new wife has spent me into the poor house! I need money! Sell the Corvette!" So she sold it...for $200. Maybe this is one of those scenarios. 😄 Link to post Share on other sites
SMB 33 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 they must have moved that car to Rapid City, SD as I saw it yesterday on Craigslist. Link to post Share on other sites
Marty Roth 2,813 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 How about: I'm the owner and serving at an undisclosed military location, or on a North Sea Drilling Rig- I cannot take new pictures right now, but the Corvette is in a Shipping Container at the Port, waiting to be released to you once you send me payment via Wal-Mart pre-paid gift cards 2 Link to post Share on other sites
DAFFYDUCK 0 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 That same guy on the drilling rig wanted to sell me his 100 point 57 Fury show car. Told me it was at his brother house near Portland. I told him WOW that's where I live but he never called me back. Link to post Share on other sites
victorialynn2 1,576 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 A reverse image search would probably answer a lot of questions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It's in container at some location and seller is not available to show it. So you have buy the car sight unseen. That requires the buyer to lock the money up in like a pay pal account and the seller offers a return if you don't like it. What a scam! Link to post Share on other sites
