I agree something doesn't add up here, why would you send a payment to CA, when the truck is listed in OR. I'm not saying it didn't happen. I got scammed about 5 yrs. ago on a second offer for a fuel injection unit for $1050.00, sent the payment too a different address, via Western Union. The invoice was an Ebay invoice, don't know how they did it but, but Ebay sorry it was not our invoice. I was very stupid and needed the injection badly. That was when i had only 3 ebay transactions and was very nieve. I now have over 50 transactions on ebay @100%. It's just there are spammers on ebay who prey of first time users, and sometime we can fall for these scammers, i did once but never again.

Oh man.... you are never going to believe this. I am astonsihed myself; I believe this truck belonged to an old aquantance of mine in the early 90's. I am pretty sure I have riden in it. I remember us taking it to the coast once here in Oregon a long time ago... I think that Craigs list truck is the one I remember!!! Believe me, there are olny few Purple F100 (53-56) that look like this. This guy & his dad restored it while he was in high school. I can't remember his name... I LIVE in Eugene, Oregon!! This truck that Scorp has posted is near Eugene in Monroe (about 1/2 hr away). The population is low... like about 8000 maybe. Small world!!! I think I have seen it @ the local Juction City (near Monroe) cruise a couple of times when I drove my Camaro. Weird!!! I wonder if i can be of assistance. Scoot

did you respond to a second chance offer that was made to your e-mail ,but not in your ebay messages . If so that is a scam. I recieved a couple of those & forwarded them to ebay and they said its a scam . (it looks real!!) . dont respond to them.
