Hello Meon,

Thank you for your interest in the XR200. I am very excited that your client is interested in buying my bike. A cashier check or USPS money order would work fine and I can work with your shipper to get you the bike in record time.

As you know, the motorcycle is located in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. I use it herd reindeer and transport fresh shipments of jean jackets enroute to various Canadian cities.

The price of the bike is firm, $120,000 Canadian Dollars, and if you would like I will ship it for free.

I look forward to hearing back from you.

-Owyhee

You know, I didn't even think about it, but I could always tell him to send the check to my work address... think he knows what a District Attorney is?  :ride: Of course, I'd like copies of his ID, too, and his 'mover's' ID as well... and fingerprints... you know, all that good stuff!  

What is weird is, don't these guys usually want money?  What's the end result of the scam, they get my bike and I get a worthless check?  :thumbsup:  That almost seems like too much trouble for a scam, to tracable, now I'm curious...

Heck, just ask for the check.  I buy bikes like this all the time, but half of the people think I am crazy, too--but I suppose that is their loss.  I guess they don't recognize an honest person when they are approached by one.

You are not giving out any personal information that is not available publicly, and he's not doing that, "I'll pay you $5000 more than the cost of the bike for you to hold until I get there or to ship and you can refund the difference.  By the way, I need it shipped to Nigeria, where I am the Prince"

Besides, he has not comitted a crime until you try to cash the check and it is fraudulent.  Then it is a Federal Offense, and someone will take notice.

About 40-50 a year.

Sight unseen is a little strong, but digital pictures works just fine.

I find them, pay for them and ask the people to hold until I can pick them up when I am travelling in that direction, and sometimes I'll have them shipped.
