We were ready to drive down to Colo and pick up a John Deere riding mower. I asked for more info and they sent a description from another brand lol. And sadly, my aunt and her boyfriend (not the sharpest tool in the shed) paid for a $5,000 Cadillac that didn't exist.
The thing that cracks me up about these ads is when it's supposed to be in Akron Ohio, and you can see it's parked on sand, with palm trees in the background! Sadly though, some people still fall for the scam (and some scams are well done/hard to detect, until it's too late) I'm skeptical of anything too cheap, or at all fishy...spidy senses on high until things are proven to be right. We bought a van last year that had me on high alert, but everything turned out as it was supposed to...but, had we not drove 2 hours to go look at it, I would have shied away. Even though there were no problems, I probably will tend to avoid similar situations in the future.
That’s for sure in Circleville and it’s freshly washed. Think about the JD climate controlled cab comfort you will enjoy next winter. Folks are on waiting lists to pay more for a wood splitter. Just saying
Some folks are so caught up in 'saving money' that they allow themselves to be taken advantage of. Nobody is on any classifieds just giving great deals for no reason. '2 guud to be true...'
Wait a second...I just sent this guy this guy the 17K via Western Union! He will be back from Afghanistan tomorrow and is delivering this beast to my house on Saturday! Too bad suckers, I get the great deal this time!!
Now, I ain't saying that it's not a scam... But that looks like concrete to me, and I can't find the palm trees in the pics....
Yep. Palm trees in the ground, not on moveable planters in Milwaukee area crack me up as well. Around here Screwloose and I see a lot of scams, and a lot are for tractors, usually green ones.
Just wait until I have it loaded in the bed of my truck at the GTG when I bring it over after getting this guy the 17k before you .
Fair point. I looked and this is a 50-60k unit, according to other units out there actually for sale.
And prices have gotten absolutely redonkulous and overinflated on everything...... Obviously realizing that "worth" and "value" can be / is at least partly subjective.....
