I'm thinking of buying your truck from the guy in Denmark- it's way cheaper than your price

Wow, scammers are everywhere among us. But hey, if the guy in Denmark wants to buy it from me at my price then he can resell for whatever he wants.

He's made the deal even better :

Subject: Re:1976 Pinzgauer 710K
Hello!
First of all,I'm sorry for the late reply.I was away from the city ( job assignments ) and I couldn't e-mail you sooner.
The car is still available for sale,so if you're still interested I'll be waiting for your reply.The final price is 3000 euros ( I can't go lower ).
The car has never been involved in accidents or crashes.It's in perfect condition ( both mechanically and cosmetically ). No hidden problems whatsoever. I inherited the car from my grandfather who lived in Denmark.That's the reason I put the car on sale in Denmark.I thought I will sell it much more faster. I'm selling it because I already have 2 cars and I can't afford to pay extra taxes for another vehicle.
The car is now in Preston,Lancashire,U.K.I'm willing to ship it ( I will pay half of the shipping fees ). If you'll decide to purchase it,I need your city postal code for estimations of the shipping fees. I'll be waiting for your soonest reply.
Thank you and kind regards!

It's amazing how after 10 years of this style of scam, that these pieces of sh** don't realize how often they give themselves away by simply poorly spacing their periods and the next sentence, as well as often capitalizing every word in an ad heading. The overly white-guy sounding names is a classic one too.

I guess there is a sucker born every minute otherwise this type of scam wouldn't still work and they would move onto something else.

What I find really funny is that I am a grandfather and live in Denmark. I wonder what else I don't know about myself.

Anyone going to mess with this dude (or dudette)?

BTT....still for sale. Anyone interested shoot me a pm or call me with a reasonable offer. Or if anyone has a older muscle car to trade with cash or equal value, might throw a few grand towards trade if something I would like.

Sale pending final payment. Looks like its going to WA. Once finalized, I will try to have the new owner introduce himself.

Cool.. we seem to have a lot of WA pinz ..

SOLD
truck left yesterday for Seattle WA. new owner:
baronofballard

New pinz owner so anyone in Seattle area that can help him out learning the truck and maybe get out on some trails. Enjoy you new truck.

Congrats on the sale - that was a nice truck!

Ballard.... Welcome to Washington!
I just found out that there is a here-to-for unkown (to me) 712K in Ballard.
Seems my tile guy (bathroom remodel) lives just down the road from that one. I'll have to make a trip
there to find him.
I hope our new owner posts here so we can meet up. Imagine a treffen through Ballard/Fremont.
A gasket will be blown somewhere, and not on a truck!

I can see it now, dinner at the Ballard Firehouse followed by Pinzgauer drag races at Golden Gardens aka SIR (Seattle Illegal Raceway) and a midnight run to Dicks Drive-in for burgers. Just like the good old days.

Don't forget the steep hill climb on the Fremont draw bridge as it goes up!

Or a quick trip up to the North Lake Tavern for pizza and suds.

Stop it...u guys are killin me. I lived in Ballard right down the road from Golden Gardens ( Sunset West Condos ) Went to Ballard High. Born in Bremerton. Have not been back in more than 30 years. God I miss Washington big time.

FYI...still looking for a 710k or 712....Wanting to trade a great looking 2001 HD Fat Boy and cash...not many takers on the trade part.
