Flats Boat Anybody?

[THEFERMANATOR]

And now I got another E-mail where he simply says want to see your boat, what is your address? These kinds of Emails worry me for some reason, no questions about the hull or price just wants to know where I live. So I respond back to him with about a 5 mile radius of where I live and my phone number. I'm on AOL and so is he, so I check to see if he has read the Email or not. Sure enough he read it right away, but never called. Sounds like a scam to get an address to rob to me. Maybe Ebay aint such a bad place to sell after all.

Pay up you insurance and give the guy your address......easy sell.

Don't forget to load the 30-30 and check the scope.

Well I have it listed on the FLORIDA SPORTSMAN and Ebay now. i hope the 15 people watching it aren't forum members here. I'd like to sell this thing and buy me a GARMIN 540S for my HYDRA when I get it back in the water.

I see that the bid is up to 7k.....hope it sells for you FERM.

And I am not "watching" it, just watching.

[THEFERMANATOR]

Well I had 24 people watching it until it hit $7K, now I'm down to 22. You sure you don't want this thing RM, I'll even throw them cuddy cushions in for free. Speaking of, I'm gonna get a picture of em sooner than later hopefully for ya.

I'm sure I do want it, and I'm just as sure I can't afford it.

The other night at dinner we were all talking about our upcomming Disney trip and the cost and such and I brought up that instead of going to Disney, I could buy another boat.

I put it up for a vote....I lost 3 neighs, 2 yea's (my boy voted for the boat).

SO CLOSE, BUT SO FAR AWAY. Had somebody who wants my boat call this morning from GEORGIA, but he wants to pay me with a personal check. I told him verifiable funds only for payment as I don't want to get a bogus cashiers check or something like I got in the past. He took offense to he fact that I wouldn't take a persoanl check, so I don't think I'll hear from him again. I don't see why it's a problem that I want funds that are guaranteed tobe good, I was even willing to meet him half way for fuel costs. Oh well, hopefully it will get better before auction end.

If he can write a check, there's no reason he couldn't hand you cash.....you are right for wanting real money......people ought to understand in this day and time, with all the scammers out there.
