    They just sold it fo $10,000 to a guy wearing alot of gold jewelry who said he was buying it as his sons first car...The guy hustled them...

    The value is anywhere from $110,000 to $191,000...The couple's dad passed,so they were selling the house and the car..I'm still in conversation with them...

    The guy didn't completely hustle them really. They set the price and he bargained with them. On the other hand he knew it was a bargain at the asking price and still talked them down.
    Bad part is that the couple was savy enough to use the internet and list it on Craigslist then they sure as HELL have heard of Ebay! If they would have taken a few minutes to do a search on Ebay and they would have realized what they had.

    Even Google would have worked. Let's hope they don't reproduce.

    I don't think it sold. I think the original seller realized what he had and relisted it without closing the previous listing.
    The listings are 2 hours apart. And the new gold chain wearing owner would have had enough money to buy a camera to take better pictures of it.

    Somethings fishy here. It was first for sale in Bakersfield this morning, now its listed in LA. Maybe he bought it today and is flipping it. You can easily copy the picture and post it in a new ad. Anyhow someone maybe got a great deal.

    If the car is really a one owner nice car than it was certainly a steal. If the car was a bondo bucket that looks o.k. in the camera phone picture then there is no way it's worth anywhere near 90k. Condition on those cars is everything as the chrome bill alone could run you 20k.

    You probably shouldn't have told them what it was really worth, doesn't do any good at this point.
