Amazing the lengths people go to rip you off. I hope they reserve a fireside spot for her in hell.

likely a scam? i just wrote the script for "her" response. it is always a "her." you will rarely but sometimes see a 20k car for sale for 10k by a clueless widow. if real, it usually lasts 5 minutes.

Yup. Wanda. Already crated and at shipping company. Was her implied dead brother’s car. 9900 not a scratch on it… Imaginary cars are always in such good shape! it is a blue on blue big block tri-power car. cripes. that is worth 10k in imaginary condition! https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...nY-4NDl0NZrALa
