Not saying this is a scam, but this is cheap. I have been looking for a while for my son and I have not found one for less than double this? Here is the link.

He probably purchased it in 08 three years ago. Do you think it is worth half of high MSRP? I can buy a new one in michigan today for near eight grand. This guy knows that it is not worth much used I would bet. I purchased a New honda TRX 450R this winter for 4600.00 tax title complete. The MSRP on it is 7200.00 + in some places. I would take half MSRP after just 6 months of riding much less after a possible three years of use.

They are a new member BUT the number listed does trace back to Kentucky so give it a try. If they reply that they are living overseas and the ATV is at the shipper ready to be shipped, RUN AWAY as fast as you can!

And I thought that the guy knew his ATV pricing!
Go figure. Glad you did not get screwed on the deal.

I went ahead and sent an email to the email he listed on his RJ account just to see if he would respond. I can't believe people would actually fall for this.... I am going to play along just to see what happens. Below is his response to the email I sent him yesterday.
Hello,
The price is $3.900 shipping included to your address. Right now i'm in England with business but my wife can manage the shipping. The atv is located in Olympia, WA. The polaris is already deposited at a shipping company in WA. I will pay for all the shipping taxes. As you can see in the description the polaris is in perfect condition.
I HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS.

Response to his above email....
John,
I will take it, but will not pay for it until it has arrived to my location. As soon as it arrives I will wire the funds directly into you account before it is unloaded from the transport vehicle. Is this a problem?

Bruce,
Would you please give me the name of the dealer you use in Michigan. I am in northern Indiana quite a bit and would come to Michigan to save a few bucks. A new RZR S here is almost 11K and they advertise being the lowest in the country. I almost paid that for one Saturday. Thanks for the info.

Exactly. Shame of this is he will probably get someone for a least a deposit if not the full amount. Kentucky address but located in upstate Washington.... hmm..... I will post his answer to the email above if he responds which he probably will not.

And the saga continues. Latest email....
So I should send you, a total stranger $3900.00? Not gonna happen. Question that might help ease my mind a bit I would like you to answer... You list that you live in Kentucky why is this RZR in up state Washington? Tell you what..... Send me a picture ID and confirm this is you and we will go from there.

Hello,
Yes this is a problem because the company won't start the delivery if you will not make the payment. They will hold the money until you will receive the ATV. if you won't liek they will return it on my expenses. let me know.
thanks.
