<VV> Tale of woe -- still looking for a good car

[George Jones]

I have to agree. I'm afraid I could never buy a car, sight unseen.
Especially one with a white paint job and with such a short and vague
description. Questions to the seller would have been the first step with an
independent assesment from a Corvair expert as the next step.

I would say you got very lucky with your previous ebay automobile purchases.
Don't expect everyone to be as honest as the previous sellers, human nature
has changed over the past 30 or 40 years.

Now you've got to deal with the negative feedback that he's likely to leave.
