95 quid Peugeot Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 There is a motorhome on ebay, now thinking it over it's most likely a scam... so having a look may now not be required However could one of you, mail the seller please and ask if its possible to "view" knowing the area you'll have more idea than me.. I assume if there is no option, it is a scam. Thanks in advance £95 linky https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1997-SWIFT-SUNDANCE-4-BERTH-MOTORHOME/264648060656?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908131621%26meid%3D462363bf48a24f0080e90fd0b5f8f0e1%26pid%3D100678%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D133345520142%26itm%3D264648060656%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057&_trksid=p2380057.c100678.m3607&_trkparms=pageci%3Aa957d2a4-5a06-11ea-86f9-74dbd180f727|parentrq%3A8af8c5f81700aa486cd5ce16fff54eca|iid%3A1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I'm in Aberdeen itself but will be going to Glasgow today and will be back tomorrow. On mobile at the moment so struggling to get proper details from the advert. Is a postcode available? That could narrow down the area and how rough it is. Opportunity for an inadvertent Aberdeen shitter meetup on some poor sod's driveway? Flat4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95 quid Peugeot Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 I think if seller is open to someone having a look legit If they're not scam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cort1977 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I just sent a message saying i was local and would like to view. They don't seem to list a mobile, is that normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Snipes Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 It is for an auction nowadays. EBay win pull the ad if anyone attempts to buy/sell outside of eBay. I'm surprised they haven't pushed all vehicle sales onto classified listings by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cort1977 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 OK, it does look reasonably legit to my non-expert eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5speedracer Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Just an observation but brick built houses like that are not an Aberdeen thing. Block and roughcast more common.Sent from my R19 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayne Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 There are 1970s brick built houses in Aberdeen (I live in one), but I would expect to see more harling in that street. if I had to call it, I’d say the photos weren’t taken in Aberdeen. 5speedracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saabnut Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I too have asked to view, but think it is a scam. The housing stock does not look Aberdonian and the neighbours car (a 1997 P plate Corsa) is Birmingham registered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95 quid Peugeot Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 Thanks gents, I think the fact 3 of you have asked to view and not one person has had a reply noe shouts scam. Thanks for your help gents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I would think the previous buyer has reported it and it's still up. Are eBay bothered about fraud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeeExEll Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Just because no reply doesn't mean it's fraud. No-one's asked for money payment here. There are still 4 days to go. Maybe the owner's been unexpectedly called away to work at short notice (based in Aberdeen employed in oil / gas industry?) and can't show the vehicle to anyone till they return home. Pics could be previous pics (from before purchase) recycled. No-one's actually done anything wrong here. Lack of communication does seem to fuck up any chance of a sale though. If anyone's willing to throw £6k at a purchase unseen then they know the risks involved. You just wouldn't. Maybe the owner will be in contact next week.

Springer Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 As said above, housing stock is distinctly non Aberdonian. I sell and fit blinds for a living and have done for several decades so generally could work out which street it would be from the first pic......and I can't!
