The 712m on ebay for $21,000

Post by audiocontr »

I'm curious about this truck. Im not so much curious about the truck itself, but more of the mentality of the seller. Does it belong to anyone on this forum?

Its been listed and relisted for about a year now at that price and no bites. Having it there does make any other 712m listed look like a bargain, and i thank them for it :D but i cannot see any motivation of the seller to see it move, nor a buyer to purchase at that price. Why have they not dropped the price?

I'm watching it as an indicator of the market (since im patiently selling my extra 712) hoping that it does fetch their asking price. C'mon economy!

Had to look to the end of the listings. It seems as there are two in the pic...maybe it's a two for one sale?
I think the person is dreaming dreams of instant fortune...Hmmmmmm. Hope they get it as it makes mine worth a bundle and that makes me want to keep it.

I know what one you're talking about, you can see that Florida rust setting in and just watch the tires going dry-rotten. If that seller doesn't wake up, there won't be much left worth selling in a few years after leaving them sitting like that.

He is an importer exporter af verious things and those trucks are just sitting in his yard. He seems pretty clueless about the trucks. I personally would not give him over 10K for one of them. Sitting for the couple years out in the weather like they have forgotten about, who knows what is now needed. Green alge that thick does not form over night

They've been for sale for a few years and probably will be for quite a few more.

I couldn't leave well enough alone when that guy was selliing the 716 (or was it a 718?) a few years ago on eBay so I'll see if I can urge him on towards reality. I'll report back with any updates as i too was wondering when the guy was going to get that truck moved as it certainly isn't at that price given its condition!
