Reply to "Pantera #7248 : SF Bay Craigslist and ebay - Caution Advised"

Having bought a car where MUCH vital information as omitted, or not disclosed, and information and parts on the car were not what were in the ad, I can say from personal experience that if that car sold without the buyer's knowing of the fire would be devastating.

The fire should be the FIRST thing any new buyer would need to know about this car, so they'd have a chance to have it properly inspected.

Follow Joe's link and you can see what the car looked like before the fire.

Read the Craigslist advertisement and you can match the License plate data that the current seller provides (JRSBUZZ) to the pictures in PROVAMO.

Actually - you don't even have to go to PROVAMO to do that - just look at the license plate in the picture above, and match it to the ad.

There's no doubt in my mind - it's the same car getting repaired, repainted and resold.

Did the current seller do a good job? Hard to say without looking at the car. Mad Dog's car came back to life from a less severe blaze.

Is it fair for the seller to not mention the fire in the ad? Probably, AS LONG AS HE TELLS YOU ABOUT IT when you call him.

Could you imagine buying this one, and then finding out it burned after the fact? I would be sad. I guess it's all good if the seller is up front about it.
