 That's a common scam. Check the samba forums for info on it.

    I'm not sure they are the same bus. Look closely at the engine components.

Interior roof is different, too. One's white, the other's beige.

If you notice on the Austin ad the license plate is blacked out. on the Ebay ad 
it's the same bus and has?blue plates on it from Gurnee, IL. If you look 
closely at the photo's you can see its the same surroundings, same garage, same 
house next door. But listed in 2 different states. I say SCAM!!!

OK Mark:? I went back and looked again.? On?the Samba ad it says it is in 
Houston and the price is $52,500 and it is a 58.? On the craiglist ad the price 
is $7,500 says it is in Austin and the bus is a 57. And it appears to be the 
same (*&^^%$#$@ bus.? I haven't found it on e-bay.

Does anyone
 know the seller?

Mark:? How? did I misread the ad.? The craig list ad very specifically says 
$7,500 and is Austin craig list and appears to be the same bus listed in 
Houston except one year different 57 vs.58.

I think you misread the ad. $50,000.00 is the asking price. It's on thesamba 
and E-bay. I think it's a scam!!!

 that's a correct ad please tell him I'm leaving right now with the money and a
