    MAIL 1 ::

    Hello,

    I have received your email regarding the 2004 Toyota Corolla S with 103,000 miles on it.
    The car is in perfect condition, no scratches on it, no damage, clear title.
    The price for the car is $2,850 with shipping included. I’m selling the car at this price because I can’t enjoy it due to my job (I work as a casino dealer on a cruise ship) and I left the car in Miami/Florida at the shipping company. I’m a single woman and I have nobody close who can use it. The car was my husband`s who loved it very much, but he did not enjoy it as he died in IRAQ 3 months ago. It brings very bad memories to me, I want to get rid of it. The buyer will receive the car with all papers and receipts that he needs to register it to his name. Shipping will be done whit DAS and it will take no more then 2-3 days. I have a friend there who will manage me a low price shipping and I assumed that it is my duty to pay for shipping it.It will be delivered directly to your address.

    Anyway, I have to let you know that I want a fast deal so if you are really interested in buying it, please reply with the following information:
    -Your full name;
    -Your shipping address (street,city,state,zip code)
    -Your phone number

    The transaction will be done only through eBay so we both will be protected.
    I want eBay because as they are the biggest company on the internet I think that we can close this deal fast and safe for both of us. Also I am not very familiar with the internet transactions and eBay is the only one I know. I will look for your email, so that we can move forward with this deal!
    Let me know.

    Regards,

    MAIL 2:

    Hi again,

    I have to tell you that I’m currently at work. As I already told you, I work as a dealer on a cruise ship and I left the car in Miami/Florida at the shipping company.
    I sign a contract with eBay and they will make the transaction for me.The car was listed in another city because I want to sell quickly and the shipping will be free anyway.The web site listed the car in the most important cities because i payed them to sell the car as soon as possible.Time is really an issue and we have to move fast,the low price is for a fast deal.

    Here is all the details about this transaction.

    PAYMENT
    The transaction will be made using eBay Motors a company who will insure our transaction.They have a program called eBay Vehicle Purchase Protection Program.This service allows us to complete this transaction in a manner that is quick and safe for both of us. It acts as a third part between seller and buyer.eBay Motors is responsible to insure that both parties comply to transaction requirements, both parties must submit proof of payment/delivery presented in a legal form (payment/delivery receipt) by the registered payment/delivery service used.The payment will be sent to eBay and they will hold your payment until you receive the car with all the documents.

    SHIPPING
    You will receive the car by shipping through DAS Auto vehicle Transport Services.It is insured in case of damage and it will be delivered to your DOOR. I will pay all the shipping costs of the car.The car is being shipped from Miami/Florida and you won’t have to pay any additional taxes when it arrives to your address. I will send you the car with all the papers (title, bill of sale.., etc.)The title is clear and clean,no lien,no loan on it.The shipping will take maximum 2/3 days.

    RETURN POLICY
    As soon as the car arrive to your address, you will test it and if it does not matches 100% to your expectations, you will return it in maximum 30 days since the arrival date. In this case eBay Company will send you the full amount back in 24 hours and you will send the car back to eBay and you don“t have to pay the return shipping.

    I started a case with eBay.
    Please email me and let me know if you received the invoice and if so, please email me and let me know if you will make the payment so I can start the shipping process and provide you the tracking number.

    Thanks!
