Do people ask these prices just on the chance that there's a clueless sucker
who will pay it? Or do they really think their car is worth that?

I think American Motors cars were decent. My parents had a Rambler sedan when I
was a young child and while I don't remember all that much about it. It was
nothing fancy, but I think the main reason they got rid of it was rust.
Mechanically it seemed OK.

Absolutely. And most retailers need your express consent to manually enter your
CC number into the POS/PIN pad. That’s actually a PCI requirement as well, but
I question how often it’s done.

which I really need to get

Paint is shot, tranny appears to be shot, but what makes it interesting is the
fact that is has heated seats, which is rare on a SD. Problem is, it appears to
have had the seats recovered with horrible aftermarket material so I doubt the
heated seats actually work.

Yeah I meant that the card info is in clear text on the mag stripe. Anything
that can read that (skimmer, or compromised POS system) can steal card numbers.
I've got a USB mag stripe reader somewhere and I've tried it with my own cards
on my personal computer.
On Fri, Dec 16, 2022, at 15:47,
And just to clarify, if someone has put a card “skimmer” on the reader, that’s
a totally different situation. You only need a card reader to get the data off
the magnetic stripe. If it’s a retail POS terminal that data is encrypted when
the card is swiped.

Unless the retailer has grossly out of date equipment (and is wy out of
compliance), the card information is never sent in the clear. It’s encrypted at
the time it’s read and transmitted that way. That’s part of PCIE P2PE standard

I wouldn’t say it’s any worse that other states. I’ve only had it happen once
in over 20 years here.
I suspect that Naples is a far better place to be grabbing credit card numbers

It’s quite possible that the PXG shop’s account or POS system is compromised
