Quack Quack :shock: :? - Must Be a family feud going on over with this seller. Here is an email I received.

On the telephone they told me they have received numerous inquireries.. 8)

Bu then .

You are the first person who is interested in it, so I told my husband I had put it up for sale, (one hour ago)...and he does not want to sell it, but I am trying to talk him into letting me sell it. I will send you pictures, and you can tell me if you would be interested in giving more for it, like $3,500. ? Then my husband wouldn't be so reluctant to sell it ? I will send you pictures anyway. I am sorry that I didnt talk to my husband before I posted it.

Plan B...Yes but I wont announce it as of yet.. Im working on it.. 8) 8)

I asked a few simple questions about the tear and a few legal formalities and received no replies whatsoever..

Plain out Rude in my opinion..Wether a local or not. I wont send out money in the blind. Neither would anyone else for that matter.

Pay 500 more.. :rofl: Where,s an emoticon with a mid finger.

Thats a good one..

I called there 2 times as well in addition to the emails.. All courteous as can be. Soooooooo. Read my mind... :lol: :lol:

Ahh let it be... Next and Laugh to it.. ;) What makes me laugh even more..
Is this

...Avoid scams and fraud by dealing locally! It goes both ways.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Even though this wasnt a Scam .. Its more of a couple undecided ...the other not knowing what the spouse is doing.. Sort
of comical .. :noyes:

But aggravating as H. for the buyer

So now they want more $$.... :thumbdown:

What happens when/if you offer the $3500? Will the husband go along with it or is this just a story to get more of your money (sound like that to me...) And it sounds like they got as family feud going on as well....which I've learned you always stay out of!

I tried to buy this Cub but the sellers wouldn't send me pics of the undercarriage or inside floor. I requested an address so I could drive out to view it during this last Ebay auction but no response. These people are really hard to deal with and very argumentative. I perceive some sort of kink here. Could be in the lack of a title or any history documentation. I love the aluminum shell and fenders but am concerned about getting a lost title on a rig which is not in any system.

I also inquired about the title and no reply. Some questions that I had never were replied to..

So Im glad it ended the way it did... sorry to say.

Classic Finn,

The only photos they sent to me showed a small piece of the frame and the hubs. I can say that these are original Cub Sports Trailer frame/hub setup from the Prefabricated Trailer Mfg. company out of LA 1947/48.

I would love to restore this trailer but dealing with these people is stressing me out............. :?
