Ok.. l found person selling 2005 mini cooper S at Yukon Whitehorse
in Canada.. The thing is .. he is selling this mini cooper s for $5000
the car is from US.. and since he gave the car vin number. It seems ok
but l wonder is it reasonable price? Can l trust this? 2005 mini cooper s with 24500miles...without any accident..
here is what he wrote on his email.. ( Im not indicating the person is name.. so that is with x s)

I am xxxxxx and we are selling the car because we need some cash as soon as possible to send our son to college in Paris. We are from Whitehorse, Yukon and if you are interested in buying it, shipping is about $600, which l agree to pay half of it. The transaction will be managed by the eBay Purchase Protection team, so everything will go smooth. You will receive the car for inspection before you make any payment to me. If you are interested in completing this deal with us, just give me a reply as soon as possible and l will reserve the car for you and also give you more info is about the car and how this transaction will work.
Final Price:5000$ (shipping included)

ABSOLUTE 100% SCAM.

There is no such thing as the eBay Purchase Protection Team.

Notice they locate the car in a place that it is unlikely u will be able to inspect it before buying?

Did they offer to put the money in escrow? Which if they open the escrow account, they have control of it.

Total scam. Seen many of these before, & we make fun of them in the various Mini Cooper forums. Often playing with the ''seller'' & turning the scam back on him.

UPDATE: The same scammers r listing another car with all the same m.o.
