-Bradders- Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 woo it rang. but it just rang and rang lol.. no answer! i've done a vic check on the car and everything seems ok! Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 Can someone who knows these cars confirm what the wire is hanging out at the bottom on the back bumper and are the bumpers always mismatched like this one? lol Quote
Ebized Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Don't think that is a hanging wire but a twig on the ground.......and yes the bumpers invariably appear as a different colour and Azure is one that tends to show it more than most. 1 Quote
Grundy Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Well the wire is a twig, as for the bumper I can't tell the difference? But then again I'm colour blind. But it's plastic against metal, of course it wont be 100% match. It's up for sale at £3500 for an 05 with 75k on the clock....There are either going to be many things wrong with it ^^ those being the least of your worry's or it is as everyone has said, a scam. Keep looking else where is my advice. Edited February 26, 2014 by grundy225 1 Quote

Grundy Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Put it this way, A good conditioned Zed, Low miles (under 60k) in Azure with GT specs, priced at say £6500 - Would be sold within 24 hours. There is a reason why these aren't sold within 30 seconds. That Gumtree add is 9 days old. Granted, it maybe mint, may be for sale and you have just made £3k profit, but when is life ever that easy?

-Bradders- Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350Z-3-5-V6-/281274489819?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item417d441bdb Ok so i've had a text from the seller of the azura on... it came from a evelynevel, no number just came up that, and it says hi the nissan 350 gt for £3,500 is still for sale, please contact me at 2005nissan@bt blah blah blah... is that dodgy or what lol?

-Bradders- Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 Also with the 3 cars in this thread, all of them are within about 5 mile radius of birmingham? there some sort of dodgy handling of 350s up there lol!? Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 i just got this message from the ebayer.... Hello, The nissan 350z gt is still for sale in excellent condition,. All necessary documents available. HPI clear. 10 months mot with 5 months tax left. My current location is Scotland due to my work commitments. If this is going to be a quick sale, I will let it go for ££3,500 delivered at my costs. The deal will go through eBay and PayPal. Thank you Evelyn Just seems too dodgy... Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Take a wide berth and look for something else... Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 Heres another reply lol Due to my location and since view is not an option I agree for a 5-7 days of full inspection period ( after the date you receive the car ). This means that you have 7 days to inspect the car for any damages and decide if you want to keep it or not! Because I will sign eBay's return policy, your money will be insured by them and you will have the option to reject the deal, only if we go through PayPal as well. If this is the case, you will receive a full refund (money back) from PayPal and I will have to take the car back on my cost! You can read more about it following the link below: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/buy/contextual/return-policy.html Let me know if the above return policy is acceptable and if you want to purchase the car please confirm your PayPal email for further instructions.

-Bradders- Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 I will drag it out to wind them up lol Quote
madmikester Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Tell them that u will collect as u will by coincidence be in Scotland for a wedding or something as PayPal is secure so can't see how they will hack that Sent from my HTC One X+ using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Rock_Steady Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) I heard that there was a scam on gumtree involving a BMW not long ago, it'd be selling for peanuts. People tripping over themselves in a panic go round to see it with the cash to buy it but, instead get robbed by a group of heavies. Wouldn't touch it with a barge pole from a bunker.

clockwize Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 When looking at Z's I had one that was very cheaply priced, apparently the owner was in the army and had it locked up, if I paid money into an escrow service, she'd have it released, I could drive it, see if I like it, If not, drop it back and take my money back... Everything went swimmingly and I got a great deal. God bless our armed forces.... I mean, it was a total scam and I told them where to go. Couldn't even get small details like name/email right.. It was Alice, with an email of stephenblah with an email name of Melissa.. Quote
-Bradders- Posted February 28, 2014 Author Posted February 28, 2014 YEah this one i emailed a nissan2005@btpro.co.uk and the reply was from evelyn@btpro.co.uk lol Quote
Iwantone Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I had the excat same experience on Ebay, but it was with a Jeep grand Cherokee. I played with the "seller" for days and enjoyed the sport. The "seller" was in France for medical reasons and the car was in Plymouth with her uncle, but would be delivered to my home for a 7 days trial. I would place the money in an "Ebay" account where it would remain until I approved the car. They even sent me the "Ebay" documentation for where to place the money. You have never seen such an abomination of a document! I offered to go and collect the car and after a short test drive I would pay cash and the deal wouild be done. I suggested that this would be far simpler and more conveinient for both parties, but the seller was insistent that I payed the "Ebay" invoice. Eventually I tired of the game and told the Lady to stop doing it because she was not clever enough and would go to prison. The sadness is that some people actually must fall for it. Ebay used to be a good place, but it's now a place to be very careful! Steve Quote
