Other than having a boring color from that time period, it looks pretty decent 
based on the information provided.

Maybe they think it’s worn out? Or possibly it’s got issues they’re not 
disclosing in the ad?

It was an old auction. Sold for $8,875 on 4/9/20 with 48k miles.

So I guess it *could* be the same car with 75k miles added since then and new 
owner taking a $6,400 loss?

Wouldn’t go into that neighborhood alone, however. Not the best part of town.

[MBZ] Ebay is a scam

2021-11-25 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Just be aware, selling cars on ebay is a scam.  If you have the high 
bidder non pay, all you can do is basically cancel the sale and relist 
it.  No leaving bad feedback, nothing.  Only option, cancel order.  No 
incentive at all for bidder to pay.  If you want to list the vehicle 
again, you will pay the listing fee again, apparently you do not get to 
relist it for free.  Ebay gets their money every time you run it 
regardless if it sells, is paid for etc.

I’m just suggesting that the price seems a bit low for the description. I’m 
betting the oil cooler is leaking. Don’t these have another common issue as

That does not, but the low price along with the sob story identify (are 
consistent with) a scam.

Maos questions still apply:

Is it realistic that an AF guy less than a major or light bird could 
afford this wagon?

WHy not take it to AK?
Etc.

These things along with the low price and sob story confirm it is a scam

I encountered one of these sob stories several years ago.  It was some 
woman being shipped off to desert areas, etc etc, advertised the vehicle 
in gufpo't (and other places) but when you inquired and asked to see it, 
it was in WA.  (yeah, right...)  Several other answers to questions didn't 
add up.  I played "her " for a while with email, then "she" stopped 
answering questions.  "She" had figured out we both knew it was a scam.

My wife got a call this a.m. from someone claiming to be our grandson; this
person claimed to be in jail in Mexico after a fatal traffic wreck where
cops found weed in the car.  The caller sounded like our grandson so alarm
bells did not go off immediately.  But the kid (caller) was light on details

[MBZ] is this a scam?

2008-04-01 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin

Friends:

This MBUSA press release just arrived:

Montvale, NJ: For immediate release

MBUSA Rewards Loyal Diesel Owners

With the goal of rewarding long-time owners of its older diesel models,
Mercedes-Benz USA announced today that it would give $2,500 in cash to all
current owners of pre-2005 diesel models. Owners need only submit a copy of
their
title or registration showing the vehicle’s VIN number, and a check 
will  be

issued immediately.

According to an MBUSA spokesperson, “Given the cost of diesel fuel today,
and the need to promote sales of our diesel models, we feel that this cash
reward is a great way to recognize those present diesel owners and gain 
their

support in enhancing the reputation of our cars, new and old.�

To claim the reward, U.S. owners should see any franchised Mercedes-Benz
dealer or contact Loof Lirpa, MBUSA, One Mercedes Dr., Montvale, NJ 07645.
Canadian owners are covered by a separate program to be announced soon by
Mercedes-Benz Canada.

which states that Apple - purveyor of the iPod, Mac computer line,

will make its debut on Mercedes models starting in 2009.

Finally got around to watching this.  I can't imagine why either the
owner of the site or Roger thinks this is unusual or worthy of
commentary.  In my experience this kind of thing happens _every_ time
you take a car to a dealer service department for two reasons:
incompetent techs and the system that prevents you from talking to
them directly, but to a so-called service representative or service
writer who runs interference for them.  Unfortunately some
independent shops are now following this model, as well (and at least
one has lost my patronage because of it).

My indy is a one man shop.  Well his wife works there too, doing the
books I think.  I like it because whenever I call or stop by there I
talk directly to him.

In case anyone is interested:

Unfortunately whoever designed his web site did some goofy flash thing
that only works in IE (at least for me -- oh no wait a minute it also
works in Safari for Windows) But not *quite right* in Firefox.  Or
maybe I don't have the right FireFox plugin.  Anyway.  His actual
shop is much more down to earth.
