I found this trailer:

The curious thing is that I found it here: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/rvs/690920549.html and

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/rvs/690856754.html

:roll: :? :? :?

So does anyone know anything about this trailer? A listing that far apart with out listing it's true location makes feel a little like one's a fraud.

I'm amazed someone would build that and sell it for the price of materials alone. I don't like the mix of aluminum and plam with the possibility of rain compromising what appears to be seams at every angle in those curves. Only one door too. He may have gotten mixed up and posted it in two locations or maybe he is/has been from both locations. :) Danny

Kind of reminds me of what happened on ebay where they stole some pictures from here and some vintage online plans that were free and sold them as their own.

Buyer beware.

I'm really surprised they haven't booted him off of there yet. Them people on there freak when you post something more than once or out of your area!!
Even if you put it where it would be most useful. :thinking:

rattle the poster's cage

Yeah, I dropped a line to the Seattle one for a 'viewing'. I am real curious to see how they respond. I have a hunch that the Dallas listing is the only legit one.

That same teardrop was on eBay just a few days ago. Never made the reserve price I trhink. The address was in Keller, same as the Dallas Craigs List ad.

Definitely a scam except the one in Dallas. Notice all th prices are below $5800 (Which is some sort of cutoff price(limit) for the proposed money transfer. :roll:
DON'T Email them, they want that, it's part of the scam, once they establish email contact they go to work trying to extract vital info through "phishing" techniques.

That would be accurate to the keller address. they are only about 20 miles apart and im sure the cell is tracing back to the issuing company (verizon)


I bet this guy in keller is going nuts about this seeing his tear all over like that.. btw one of the copies is now on the dallas site too.

I kind of figured that it was a launch of s*#! especially after seeing the Dallas one. I didn't even think of the limit of a money order setting the price; good thinking James. :thumbsup:
