Buyer beware

Wonder how a Fiat Ducato and a Holden Rodeo Motor home can be similar prices ??

Has anyone notified David or Michelle?

These sorts of advertisements are seen in Saturday newspapers, particularly with popular 4wd vehicles, Landcruiser, Prado at a seemingly bargain price, and as usual, an email address to contact.

I have even seen the add repeated, ....if the add was genuine at the indictaed price, the vehilce would be sold.

There was an article recently where if you contact the seller, the vehicle won't be where you are, but they assure you it is legitimate, you won't be dissappointed, send a deposit and they will freight the vehicle to you for inspection, and if your not happy, they will pay the freight back and refund your money....lol..lol..

Unfortunately, some people will believe them, but then people also buy dodgey fuel saving gimicks too..

Thanks all for the warning. Yes it probably is a scam and the office has been notified. Unfortunately it's a long weekend here in WA so the office is shut through Monday.

Mod Team.

Good pick-up Rob!

Cheers

I dont see how anyone could be scammed!! You wouldn't buy without seeing it. You would check through REVS or the appropriate govt body in your state to see who owns it and its history. You would only pay by a bank cheque after all the relevant checks.. I just bought a car for my other half and did just that.. Maybe i have overlooked something, i would be interested to know if there is a way around the system,, we all need to know .. Michael

THEY ARE OUT THERE,,, READ THIS EMAIL FOR A CARAVAN,,, motor runs well??????

Hello there and thanks for your interest,

I hope to find a buyer as soon as possible.I attached some pics for you.
Where are you located? because I have listed the caravan on many web sites so I can sell it asap.
If you have any further question please do not hesitate to ask in order to make this a successful deal.

this was recent and she wouldn't tell anyone where the van was just wanted the $ "held" with money back guarantee.

Said van was in Darwin and I would look at it but she found every excuse not to say where it was.

Mate in Qld got same responses,, many ,,, pay now and see later.

BEWARE

I recently came across a Range Rover "bargain" and made the usual enquiries. The location on Carsales was Brisbane and when I enquired, it transpired that the vehicle was actually in Tassie. Not just in Hobart or somewhere equally convenient for a cheap flight and Rac inspection etc, but at the ends of the earth and neatly packaged away in a shipping container ready to be shipped to my door after which i had 5 days cool off period/inspection opportunity. Meanwhile, I'd already paid via ebay's paypal. No phone number, just an email to which every inquiry I made was always met by an economy of words and would entertain no discussion. Also saw something similar on Gumtree.

Beware.
