becuase the reserve is the minimum youll sell for. if its too high people dont want to even bid.

i’d say its more than $750 bc thats what the deposit is.

why not, bidding is a binding contract. as long as you meet him in person. have him bring a copy of his drivers license.

maybe tell him there will be a 2 week hold on the check to ensure it clears. reference nigeria scams and how you dont want it to happen to you.

Its not as much what he’s asking, more so the way he’s asking it. I responded with “Call me and we can discuss your concerns” and haven’t heard back from him.

It also bothers me that he made those demands before the thing even had any bids…

Is the car fully C-Mod other than the engine? Is there a current log book? When was it last raced? And finally, who built the car (some guy, known racer, shop)?
