[35bansheerider]

A guy is trying to sell this ski to me for a really low price, seems to good to be true, its a scam or its stolen.

I dont believe its a knock off

looks like the one that was on ebay not long ago and I know who bought that. Where is this ski supposedly located? and what motor?

Most the pics came from this ad.

Sounds like a scam to me.

Was Brads ski I'm pretty sure. Sold this spring.

Did the current guy ask for a " deposit " first? Because very often in the car scene with the rare older jap cars like Supras, rx7s, nsx, skylines there are rip off scams of pics with people's cars ( my supra was used ) to sucker a guy into a $3,500 down payment to hold the car. I always thought about it happening in the Am jet ski world sadly.

kinda what I thought, scammer! Glad there is forums like this one to sort out the trash.

Im pretty sure those pictures are in front of @customride0105 house.

I find that a lot on craigslist. They pull pics off ebay, make up some story and start fishing for suckers.

I was emailing a guy about a truck a few years ago. Broken English was a dead give away, details were sketchy, said truck was on the east coast and he was deployed but the plates on the truck were from Minnesota or something. Lot's of red flags if you're watching for them.

Nowadays, I treat every craigslist add as a scam until proven otherwise.

 

[customride0105]

That's a scam..

Lone star on here now owns it,

I seen that when it was posted. There was a few in uk that were trying to sell the ski also...

Just ask for another photo at a different angle and say toss a can of beer/soda/whatver in the tray. If he cant produce it, its a scam.

 

[ajmps1]

^thats a good one or tell him you'll pay him upon delivery

 

[deftons56]

Or tell him to f#% k off!
