[DeTomaso] Ebay Pantera: Is A SCAM!!!!

[Julian Kift]

Often I can direct them (on line) to a source (on line). 
For example, www.mobile.de has more than ½ dozen cars not currently in the Registry. One only needs to contact the seller, obtain the VIN and send the photos.

>> And the irony here is you are now advocating the exact thing that you are suposed to be protecting with your login process. Contacting sellers with absolutely no real intention to purchase, but simply as a means to get information and VIN.....isn't that what most scammers do??
 
And out of concern and respect for the seller…
I am quite interested in then providing a free add for that seller on the ProvaMo website… which as you all know (right?) host the largest collection of DeTomaso cars for sale world-wide. Yea, tooting my own horn maybe a little, but the point is there is a LOT of traffic to ProvaMo.com by potential buyers, so the seller gets broader exposure for their car and at no expense. 
 
>> No matter what the general feeling about login to the registry, (which I too find a PITA, especially when I have to login multiple times) I feel the 'Cars For Sale' page should be outside the members zone and free access, otherwise you are predominantly restricted to only members seeing the ads, and they for the most part have Pantera's already.

 

We all know about carfax, and one needs the VIN to check a car, so sellers are (or should be) familiar and comfortable disclosing the VIN, and they don’t have to pay anything, like they do at carfax.

>> 1. I don't think you can compare the registry with Carfax, you offer no means to verify a cars history and any available information is based on the honesty system for disclosure. Often for Pantera's even a particular cars color history is vague. 

>> 2. IMHO Carfax isn't worth the paper it's written on...... There was a pending Class Action against Carfax as not all states have open reporting, so Carfax does not have access to all records. My old 2001 Dodge Ram truck came out of CA and had a clean Carfax. When I called my insurance company after the purchase they told me it had been subject to three previous significant claims.
