You should tell them the windsheild has recently been "riped" out and replaced as well. *No offense, only joking! * ;D

Good Luck!!!

ps You should include a picture of those coolers full of fluke!! 8)

Cool deal MJ - looks nice. Hope you get her sold in another week.

That is a proven seaworthy V right there. ;) And a nice trailer.

I think your going to deter some buyers with the capital letter statements at the end of your ad. I always put in disclaimers, but I put them in in the same font except I used red to highlight it. It gets the message across, but doesn't make you look like your demanding.

I personally would put at the end of your description, "Bid to win. This is a no reserve auction, you bid and it can be yours. My opening bid is what my reserve would have been, so bid to win." or something along those lines. This has worked for me in the past.

Or you could start your bidding out lower, and hope a bidding war breaks out at the end. Also include how long you will store the item for. You may also want to consider certified cashiers check for your deposit. I know for the longest time I had a PAYPAL account, but it had a $500 limit on it(that was my limit on my debit card). I've had to pass on auctions before because of the PAYPAL deposit.

Just trying to help a fellow V-20'er out.

I agree with Ferm, Those disclaimers at the end of the listing do nothing but deter buyers. They provide no real protection against non-paying bidders or scams. They may however give off the impression that you are unreasonable or just plain mean. Remember when people are buying a boat they want a pleasant experience, its supposed to be fun. If they think you are going to kick their but when they come to look at or pick up the boat they may not bid ;D Also include your reason for selling as this will probably be one of the first questions people will ask.

I see your points Therm and Mulv but I don't think its hurting anything. Just my opinion.

MJ - I think your 125 rating at 100% positive say everything about you. More than words in the ad could ever say. The cap disclaimers might even deter the scammers!
