Bosses are sweet rides, but something must be up with that one. $5200? No way, no how.

If it sounds too good to be true on ebay, it usually is. Walk away.

In this case, RUN!

OK, ONE MORE TIME, for those who have been under a rock for the past year... This is the 3,410,987th post repeating this same information.........

When you see a car on Ebay that's WAY too cheap, and the listing is restricted to "Pre-Approved Bidder's Only" - IT'S A SCAM ...
:bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang:

Examples: 65 Shelby $5200, 70 Boss $8200, Eleanor $6000, etc, etc, etc

When you get "pre-approved", you'll get an email from the "seller" about his poor brother being killed in a bicycle accident (or some other nonsense). The car is in Europe, but he'll pay ALL the frieght to get it to you, all you need to do is send a 25% deposit via Western Union - which you'll NEVER see again...
The scammers hi-jack legitimate users' accounts, so previous feedback and location really mean nothing... :nono: It's not just Mustangs either - all types of collector cars, motorcycles, jewelry, etc - anything a greedy person would consider a "bargain", and not do their research on...

After all the warnings about this type of scam, anyone who is foolish enough to send money deserves to get taken. A fool and his money are soon parted.

Yes, thanks Bob.

And if you would like to email the seller he will explain the car is in country X and he will ship it to you at reduced price Y after you send amount Z to him ... etc.
