LOL, this is kind of like a reverse scammer thread ...... someone GAVE you (part owed) money and then didnt want to come claim the item - after 2 years:
I wouldve have stopped communicating after 4months.
Not the first time I have heard this, I know a fellow who was selling a custom Harley. Had a guy show up and gave him 500$ deposit for a week to hold. Never returned.
