[THRILLSEEKER]

anybody here care to varify Baja HIN sequence?

[dzglaser21]

ask him for a picture of somthing specific and strange, that way you would at least know if he actually has the boat or is just using someone elses listing

[jeff32]

back a couple years, I wasted my time like that playing around and trying to squeeze the guy in his lying...

I'll let someone else play with him... If you don't mind...

[Donman]

That boat was on Boattrader last week, then it was yanked. I saw it here earlier today. Scammers ....

[BlackJack58]

If only you could send hand grenades via e-mail...

[yesrej]

its a scam. an 03 25 outlaw is worth alot more then 18500 even with a 6.2.
