The car is
already at the shipping company in San Jose, Ca sealed
and
ready for the shipping.I have a contract with eBay so
this deal must go
through them. I'm very busy with my job and I'm left
out of the town so
I can't meet in person with you so this is the reason
why I chose to
sell my car over the internet. According with the eBay
you have 5 days
from the time you receive the car to inspect it and
decide if you want
to keep it or not.
Here is how it will work:
1.First of all I will need the following details from
you:
- Full Name
- Full Shipping Address
2. After I will receive the details from you, I will
forward them to eBay.
3. After they will process your info, they will send
us both invoices.
The invoice will send you the details on how to make
a refundable
payment.*I want to let you know that I will don't ask
you to use for
payment MONEY GRAM OR WESTERN UNION so don't worry about
that.*
4. eBay will contact me and I will ship the car to you.
After you
receive the car you will have 5 days to test, verify
and do whatever you
need to the car. If you will buy, then I will receive
the payment
details from eBay so that I can pick up the money.
5. If you will decide that you will not buy the car,
eBay will refund
the money and I will have the shipping company come
pick up my car. If
you wish to make the transaction, please send me the
necessary info so
that we can proceed. I look forward to hear from you.
Thank you
