http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-cars-trucks-1997-Honda-accord-SE-W0QQAdIdZ444480747

He always selling undervalued cars, but he has an alberta phone #. I googled his number and it shows up all over canada as a "scam". 587-888-0679

[Disoblige]

There is only one link that one person called him out, but I can't make out the story since the ad was deleted and I can't access the cached page.

[G-ZUS]

Maybe a curber with junk cars?

[Boosted131]

How would it be a scammer? If you can physically drive the car and pay cash? Seems legit he's prObably just flipping cars

[78si]

This guy is definitely not legit. Thanks for the pm fellow beyonder!

Looks pretty legit to me. If hes sellimg cars for cheap theres probably a reason to do so.

That's what I was thinking. Then again anybody would be a scammer if the only clientele they get are early 20's brokeasses on the grind who just don't understand the concept of, you get what you pay for.

[ddduke]

I still don't see how he's a scammer. Maybe 78si should elaborate.

Looks to me like one of those guys that trolls auctions for the cheapest cars he/she can find then flips them. He may be a greasy curber but I don't see how he's scamming people.

You can still be a "scammer" curbing/ flipping cars.. I'm not going to say much more. I've been watching a few of his cars on kijiji, plus contacting him and previous owners of the said cars.

:closed:

[Disoblige]

How do you contact the previous owners of those cars?

[corsvette]

I attend quite a few auctions of all sorts throughout the year, public, dealer, salvage, etc... I sometimes browse Kijiji after the sale and see what guys are asking for the vehicles they buy. his is an example I see quite often.

A car purchaced last summer at a hail damage auction on a Wendsday. By that evening I see the car posted on Kijiji, the ad reads such claims as one owner, garage kept, never winter driven, recent tune up, brakes, new timing belt (this particular car did not even use a timing belt) and a claim of one owner. I did send him an email asking if he had records of all the work and history to which he replied all records got wrecked in a flood this summer. Maybe an off chance he knew the previous owner but I would guess more likely all of his claims were just plain lies.

Also, that same guy had about four vehicles for sale at that time, all with similar ads claiming new parts and exceptional maintenance. Its very easy for an inexperienced person to get caught buying someones lies. Not saying these cars were bad or this type of person is scamming, some guys out there can be very dishonest making the buyer believe he's getting somthing he's not.

No 100% guarantee without a vin... but the accord posted, sure appears identical to the one I sold for my MIL, the number appears in my phone history multiple times around the time it sold...

except mil's was a 96 with 328k, not 200k...

no promises, but something smells bad...

[corsvette]

Now the link is for a 2005 Ram. Whats that now, 3 different vehicles in one day?

[G-ZUS]

There was a Honda Insight posted by original owner on Kijiji a couple weeks ago, needed a new battery (big $$), sold same night. I could have sworn it was re-posted a couple days later as not needing anything and attached to this number.


His name isn't listed in AMVIC's database either.

http://www.amvic.org/lookup/index.cfm?fuseaction=PersonSearch

[G-ZUS]

Looks like he got a new number

403-971-8516

[natty54]

here is the old insight i think

[AllGoNoShow]

Haha $975, wow, maybe $5975.... The new link is for $5900 but only one car for sale. Everyone in the NE has that many cars on their lawn, never mind the driveway, I wouldn't point fingers that way.

[G-ZUS]

Doesn't look like NE to me :s

[Graham_A_M]

^ I've seen an Insight used as a gutted 8 second drag car (yes it obviously had a huge engine swap, IIRC for a small block Chevy). For $1k, that would be one hella fun project. :D

[AllGoNoShow]

Pift for 1k I'd actually drive the ugly thing :P

[78si]

He told me he lives by "chonik" wherever that is ;)

[78si]

Here is another awesome "low" km car with the wrong year.. Might not be the same guy.

Same writing style and If you look in the background on the driveway, you will see the Insight and same Odyssey on the driveway ;)

[ddduke]

I don't get why you won't give up which ever info you have but you continue to bump this thread.

Either talk or let the thread die already.

DONT BUY THIS HYBRID.

HYBRIDS BATTERIES NEED REPLACING, WILL NOT CHARGE, NEW BATTERIES ARE $5,000, CALLED CALGARY HONDA TO CONFIRM. THATS WHY BURNS 7.1 LITRES PER 100KM AND MOTOR ALWAYS RUNNING ON ASSIST POWER, MEANING ON GAS ENGINE AND NOT BATTERY.

WENT TO SEE IT, SELLER WILL NOT TELL YOU THAT

ANOTHER LIE OF HIS: $20 TO FILL UP, IMPOSSIBLE AS FUEL TANK IS 40L


SELLER WILL LIE TO YOU, AVOID
