Default Re: Scammer warning

nothing leaves my property until I have the cash. If the buyer sends a bank or any other check I call them when they can pick up the item, usually 2-3 weeks or more and only when my bank tells me they have the funds, no exceptions. I do not take paypal as payment. When prospective buyers come for a test ride , I go with them again no exceptions, if it is a two seater the buyer can ride or drive, I am in the other seat. Cash is king, I have had people come with briefcases full of it to buy classic Mustang fastbacks which I use to restore. Over the last 50 years I've sold about 100 vehicles all this way. I pretty much demand a face to face, and once you look and decide it is what you want, it is yours with no guarantee mentioned or implied, and clearly stated in the bill of sale.
