sunrivergal Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I am new to this forum but my friend who has a toy told me to go to this site. I found a toy online at Craig's list and she thinks it is a scam. Has anyone seen this ad or delt with this person, James Felton? He has always quickly answered my questions online. But I just don't know. I will try and past the ad below. I would appreciate any advice. I am a single, older woman and would really like to start travelling with my dog and grandshildren. Thanks for your help. Hello,I'm the owner of this beautiful 1992 Toyota Itasca Spirit with only 90,865 original low miles.It has been very well maintained,nice and clean with no stains.The engine starts easily, doesn’t burn any oil, and there are no leaks.Clear title in hand ready to transfer to its new owner, the motorhome is ready to go. I'm looking for a quick sale before my upcoming deployment take place, that's why I've lowered my asking price to only $1,875.00 (no hidden charges).The motorhome is currently located at approximately five miles of Cheyenne, WY., stored in a small military facility. I have some benefits and if you can't manage to come here before I'll be moved to my next duty station the Toyota can be transported FREE of charge to your home address by a military carrier,estimated shipping time: 2-3 business days.As I said before, this motorhome is in absolutely pristine condition and to support my argument I've added here a complete description and more pictures:http://jpegbay.com/gallery/002792092-1.html#1Thanks for your interest, hope to hear from you soon,J.

linda s Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Same exact ad is also listed in Florida. If it sounds too good to be true it is a scam. Real value of a rig like this would be 12 grand or more. Who do you know who just gives their money away Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrivergal Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Thank you both for your prompt response. I know it sounded good.....Logistically wierd tho. Can't you get this guy? I wonder if he has really gotten money out of anyone. Oh well. I will continue to search. Again, thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
