Default Just a warning might be true might be not

I was contacted by member sc123 stating he has a ysi and sent me couple of pictures from another member that listed the exact same pictures and same discreption, when i asked for more pictures he said he has it wrapped up for the quickest buyer to not delay him!

From his reply it appears he's also posting as SWZ 221 and apparently tried to sell a top on the C7 FS/WTB.

Glad to see this. He contacted me about selling some sway bars and just sounded scammy. Same line that parts are packaged up and when can I send the money.

I said I would have my friend pick it up and pay with a cashiers check for $250 more than the price and he could give my friend $200 and keep $50 for his effort.

his response was was very amusing; he is quite a snowflake:

"I don't feel comfortable with a third-party."
