Hi Chris,

"View Seller's other items" shows ten other vehicles currently listed for sale. That doesn't mean that the seller didn't buy it brand new in 1990 but it certainly doesn't give him any extra credibility.

Not that I have anything against used car salesmen, you understand. But an EBAY LISTING IN ALL CAPS **really** bugs me. If you're going to use the internet to make a living, you should take the time to learn how things are done.

And in some ads he's "BOB", and in other listings he's "RAY". Strange.

Does the carfax indicate the number of owners or their locations? If the car was from out of state or registered to more than one owner it would indicate fraud. (Or a problem with Carfax).

Happy trails,

Greg Potts Toronto, Ontario, Canada
