Something came up and I had to leave urgently on a business trip. I wanted
to let you know that the truck is still available. I had a buyer offering
$2,800 but his loan did not get approved.

I am selling the truck for only $2,500. This Toyota Tacoma looks like new.
The truck is in great condition inside, outside and mechanically. It will
come with a clear title, bill of sale signed by me as well and all the
papers (including the original manuals and keys) that you will need to
register it under your name. I am selling the truck due to some financial
changes in my life, thing that has caused me a great loss of funds and the
quick selling of this truck (which I honestly rarely using it now) would get
me a quick budget necessary for my personal problems and I need to pay in
less then two weeks some debts.

So I’m willing to let it go for $2,500.00 and since I only have one, first
come, first served.

Although I am not home, we can still close this deal through ebay. I have
purchase a protection program with them (Condition Guarantee by Seller
Program), so ebay will guarantee up to $50,000 for any vehicle I sell.
Shipping is already paid, as I explained, my buyer didn’t get the loan after
I have made the arrangements to ship the truck. The trucking company would
not refund me but can ship the truck to anywhere within continental US, so
I’ve left it at their warehouse and it’s ready to ship at anytime. Also,
this purchase protection guarantees that the truck is exactly as I
described; basically, once delivered, you’ll have 5 days to inspect it at
your home and if you decide not to keep it you will get refunded in no time
and they will charge me with the return costs.

If you agree with these terms, please email me your shipping name and
address so I can start this process through eBay. It is not necessary to be
a registered user with eBay to benefit from their vehicle purchase
protection program.

I await your email with the requested details.

Thanks,
John Essenpreis

Dear Terry,

The shipping has already been paid. I will have the truck sent to you for inspection after you will make the deposit with eBay. Right now the truck is at DAS (trucking company) warehouse kept in a sealed container ready for delivery and since I am not at home right now a test drive is not possible or a view. However I told you I do offer an inspection period prior buying the truck if we close the deal trough eBay motors vehicle purchase protection program. Let me explain you how the eBay process works.

The process works something like this:

1. You send the requested amount to an eBay motors bank account.

2. EBay will confirm me that you have made the payment.

3. I will ship the truck so you can Inspect, test and make a decision if you will keep it or not.

4. If you will not get exactly the same truck that you have viewed in the ad, and also a clean title you will receive all your money back from eBay motors.

5. If everything is ok eBay motors will get the approval from you to release the funds to me.

If you agree with this process please let me know and I will forward your details to eBay motors to set up our transaction.

Thank you for your time.

Hi,
I’m still on the trip, I just have a very tight schedule, but it will clear up a little over the next 2 weeks. I’m in a business with Shell Oil Co.(our truck is contracted out to Shell and Taylor Transport) The car is in Florida, in the shipping warehouse, (is already on the container complete with keys, title, service records and original manuals. I can provide a pre-purchase 150-point inspection report done by a professional inspector and a 5-day inspection period.
In order for both of us to be protected we’ll go through eBay VPP.
- I will need your full name, shipping address and phone# to register you as buyer with them.
-eBay will process the info, and send you the invoice with the transaction details.
- you send the money to eBay. They keep the payment secured in their bank account.
- After they secure your payment, they will instruct me to begin shipping you the car w/ documents. Shipping will take within 24-48 hours.
Once I’ll start the delivery, the shipping company will confirm you the exactly day and hour when the car arrive, you will have the tracking number, so you can check online the status of the delivery.
- You will receive the vehicle with all the documents for a 5-day inspection period. After the inspection period ends, if there are issues with the car, they will send you a full refund within 3 business days. In this case, you will ship the car back to me at my expense.
If all is good with the car, which I’m sure it will, and you want to keep it, you will have to give approval to eBay to release the payment to me.
If we have a deal, please reply with your full name, shipping address and phone # so I can get the ball rolling with eBay.
Thank you,
Michael

Sorry for the late response but I have just arrived in Madrid, Spain. I wanted to let you know that the boat is still available for $12,000+$300 shipping fees. It is in great condition inside, outside and mechanically, used only in fresh water, clear title.

Hi there again,

Because I’ve been forced to move with my job here in Spain and I can’t close the deal face to face, I want to use eBay Motors VPP for this deal, because you will have protection up to $50,000 trough eBay Motors Vehicle Purchase Protection so, you will be 100% secured in this deal. I need your full name and your shipping address so I can initiate the transaction with eBay Motors. They will contact you with further details regarding the payment and the shipping process. You will have to make the payment into my eBay Bank Account, eBay Motors will confirm it and the shipping will be started. You will have 14 days for inspection from the moment the boat arrives before you confirm the deal and eBay Motors forwards the payment to me or you cancel the deal and you will get your money back. The boat will be returned free of charge. It is not a sight unseen deal. On the other hand I can ship the boat knowing that I have the money in my eBay Bank Account and you won’t dissapear with it.. We are both covered.

Sorry for the long emails I have tried to explain the entire process.

Thank you,
