Hello ,

Thanks for being interested in buying my 2006 Honda Accord EX,automatic transmission,white,VIN # 1HGCM56776A071428.Only 55,350 miles, beautiful condition in and out. Paint shines ,zero dings/dents,no accident. Non-smoker,always garaged and covered. It comes with all the documents needed for registration and clear title.
To save both of our time I’d like to make everything clear at this point, I am selling this vehicle because I need money fast as I have to meet a mortgage payment deadline so this transaction must be completed fast as time is my main priority, the book value for this vehicle is more than what I’m asking for it now , but I’m willing to sell it for this price for immediate payment so before we proceed with any arrangements I must ask you to confirm that you have a real interest in this vehicle and the necessary funds to make this purchase readily available. The price that I’m asking for the vehicle is US $ 2,900, this price includes the door to door shipping, handling and insurance fees for shipping within the continental US. You will have 5 days for inspection and possibility for a refund policy.I’m located in Fairfax,VA and the vehicle will be shipped from here.
I want to take this opportunity to assure you that this deal is 100% legitimate,the financial part of this deal will be manage by a third party.So if you decide to buy my vehicle or need further information please get back to me as soon as possible.
I look forward to hear back from you soon.
Thank you and have a great day,

Elissa Kallen

Thank you for a quick response.  I am located in Dallas Texas.  The search on craigs list was in dallas so that is where we expected the car to be.  However, the price and mileage which you have listed is very good.  I am in the market for my first car because i will be going off to college soon.  There are a few questions which my parents have about the car itself and the way it would be shipped and so forth. They would like to call you tomorrow and discuss the terms and conditions of the car.  Could you please send contact information so that they can call you tomorrow.

Hello again,

The vehicle is still available for sale and the asking price is US $ 2,900.The price includes the shipping and delivery charges to your home address.The transaction will be fully under eBay’s surveillance, giving us both security and insurance that nothing will go wrong. They will be the 3rd, objective party involved in the transaction. This way you will actually pay for the vehicle after you will receive and test it, because eBay will hold the funds and release it to me only after you accept and confirm the delivery.After the vehicle reaches your address you will have 5 days to test it. Within this period you have to decide if you purchase it or not. If you decide to take it you will have to contact eBay and let them know that, so they can release the payment to me. If you won’t like it you will have to ship it back to me within the 5 days and eBay will refund you. The shipping back will be done on my own expense, but I am sure this will not be the case.
If you decide to buy the vehicle please provide me me your full name and the address where you want the vehicle to be delivered and I will initiate the transaction with eBay. You will receive all the transaction details from them.
Looking forward to doing business!
Regards,

Elissa
