    As far as the seller. Some people still believe in only dealin in cash or check. The last two wagons I have bought have come from North Carolina and Indiana. Both were over 6 hours from me. Both we older owners who did not believe in wire transfers. Some people do not believe in technology. Hope you get it AK27. I would love to see it, looks like a great buy

    Sorry for all the problems with the transaction, AK27. Hope it still works out eventually and you get this Grand Safari.

    I don't know how much you paid, but I would make the 7 hour drive and pay that man a little visit to see what his intentions are. Personally, I couldn't afford to lose $100... which which is obvious considering that I have had my wagon since 2007 and it still does run because I cannot afford to repair it unless I sold the new car I won. lol.

    Hope it works out to your best interest!

    This jerk just refused my check when it was delivered to him at 2 pm today so someone else can buy this wagon if he re lists it. Buy with caution!

    It cost me $20 to overnight the check on Friday and $15 a piece to stop payment on both of them today. I may end up losing $50 but I'm going to try and get the overnight $20 back.

    This seller will find no friends on the forum from here on out. That's really bad behavior.

    I agree... behavior like that is unacceptable and in poor taste. When you do someone wrong, it always comes back to you they say.

    I've been buying and selling cars for over 20 years and that was by far the worst seller that I have ever had to deal with.
