[tcb] Re: this sounds like a scam

This is almost verbatim of the scam letter that Everett Barnes warns of on the samba. He ships you a check for more than the asking price, asks you to wire him the difference, his payment is a fraudulent certified check. His check bounces after a couple of weeks. His so called shipping agent never shows and you still have your bus and less of course the money you wired him.

Again, I wouldn't touch it with a 10' pole; or a German or a Frenchman either for that matter.
