You can nit pick it to death and perhaps miss out on a nice van. For
me, this would be a stretch as I've only once spent more than 10K on a
vw bus. Brings up an interesting question.....other than the vehicle
being relisted, how do you know if  the ebay sale went through? Can
you tell I don't do the ebay thing?
