So that truck appears to be very nice, but sounds like it may have a few issues that need sorted out. Either way, around my area that truck really does only have 60k on the clock, it seems like a fair price.

If it is a scam, it's not a typical one.. usually they refer to it as 'the item' they never do into detail on what's being sold.. it does sound a little fishy to me though..

I have a dollar that says it's a scam. Trying to get you to pay shipping and a deposit. Will want you to pay money gram. Send an email asking if you can pay through Pay Pal, I bet they will tell you about a "bad experience" with Pay Pal.

I have not received a reply since I sent him some opinions of his truck, we shall see. I will play this out to at least have some fun.


Someone else tag in and send him an email too.

Here is how it is going.....
Let me explain you the entire process one more time.
1. You provide me your full address(street, city, state, zip code) and the full name you want to be on papers and title.
2. After I forward your contact details to eBay, you will receive the invoice from eBay.
3. You fund the eBay escrow account ($7,500), they will secure your funds in their trust account and start the delivery of the truck.
4. The truck will be delivered to your address while your money stays into eBay escrow account.
5. When the vehicle arrives you'll have 5 days to inspect it and test drive it and basically decide if you want to keep it or not.
6. You can simply decide to cancel the transaction and get your funds back from the escrow account. If you don't want it, you'll get the funds back in full.
7. eBay will only release the funds to me after a new title has been issued under your name from the DMV. Let me know if everything is clear and good to go now.
Thank you, Anthony S. Crawford


I told him I have an ID card to get on base and look the truck over personaly, so we shall see. lol So no one falls for the scam, here is how it goes.

I understand your point of view, but like I already told you it is already sealed and if you want to pick it up, first I will need the payment confirmation from eBay. Unfortunately Malmstrom AFB is not a showroom that means they won't manage this transaction for me... Once I got the payment confirmation from eBay I will make the arrangements for you to go there and pick it up.
Thank you, Anthony S. Crawford

Well this is the 1st time you have explained it, to me anyway.
I want to come out to where the truck is and bring cash, look the truck over in person, and then go for a test drive with either your brother or the Tech Sergeant. Then pay cash for it, get a bill of sale, get the title signed all over to me and then be on my way.... That is the normal way to buying a truck, to me anyway.

Picked this little F150 off the Clist this weekend for $1,200 (was asking $1,500). 77 with 400, C6, A/C, luxury package, no rust. Still have the original radio I may put back in. Has some patina on the top of the cab, needs minor trim work, seat repaired, headliner de-warped, heater motor, PS pump (owner bought a new one the day I bought it, still in the box), hood ornament. Runs, shifts, brakes, drives awesome.

13K really...and....

Not even the passenger side park light cover
Evidently they could not get the t/s on the column to work, or when they moved the 3 spd on the floor and took the shift off the column, they messed something up. So they added on a aftermarket t/s switch below the factory spot.
No power brakes
No sun visors
Painted the exterior door handle and locks
Seat belt does not go under seat hinge bracket
You can see where the FORD letter use to be on the hood
Drivers side wiper blade only, at least the passenger arm is there.
Florida truck and NO a/c

Maybe I am too picky for 13k? lol
