Because I have nothing better to do with my life, I listed the Tetnas Express on buysell.com and got a reply from a Pauline Preston wanting to purchase the car sight unseen other then the pic John Paul took of it at the car show. On talking with a couple people on this, it was thought maybe it was the movie industry and the Tetnas Express was going to be a star. After a few emails back and forth, I get some official looking PayPal emails saying funds were being held until notification was given to release the funds. It seems they wanted me to send $1700.00 to a shipper in Liverpool for them as the car would be going overseas. Being born yesterday when it was dark, I sent copies to PayPal for authentification and they came back saying "Thats not how we do things" but if you want to give away your money and set yourself up for identity theft go for it. I sent an email back to Pauline Preston saying the car had been stolen, the kid that stole it completely destroyed it and died for his efforts and also that I was happy about the death as I hate thieves... As exciting as these things get I think I still prefer selling face to face with either cash or certified check. Attachments:
