I think I will start selling cars on CL and ask for Paypal deposit
I didn't ask for such a deposit - this guy was so anxious to "get the wagon off the market" that he seemed to find it appropriate to move dollars into my domain without having laid eyes on the car.

Now, mind - I have bought a car (Elvira, 97 Miata that was my pride and joy until eaten by a red-light-running arsehat) totally sight unseen on ebay - so can't very well be throwing stones at this point.

Truly hope Gretel meets the buyer's wants and needs. Truly glad to remove her from our insurance policy. Win-win for everybody is what I'm holding out for.
