So what the hell does that mean??

 

That he can pull a VIN. Other then that, not a lot.

 

That is the funniest email I have ever read

 

My guess is he/she wants to avoid negative feedback and is using this to phish.

 

What i have got to know is if the basketball comes with the car. I mean if it doesn't honestly i'm going to have to bid.

 

no that means hes just a baller

 

poor guy...lost his father a couple months ago.. i was looking at his classic corvette on ebay too..
you know..
they always want that 2500. us deposit..

western union..

sorry ..no suckers here

 

I got the same reply as the other guy. Must be some automated scam. Probably uses it to sell other cars just like that one.
By checking the VIN through Honda you can check where it was purchsed, it's last recorded service, it's current owner, warranty history, etc. It's application here was to ask him a simple question: "where was the car purchased" wrong answer was given, thus it is indeed a scam. But you probably knew that already.

 

Interesting that he lists Sean Church (Ultimate Lurker) by name. If UL did tune this car, he can probably ID it and contact the real owner that his car is being used for an eBay scam.

In fact, it's likely the real owner is here on s2ki so I wonder, Scott, if you can find the person's screen name based on the real name info you have.

 

Ah, eBay has taken the listing down.
