Does it matter that the car was sold originally in Japan? Same number of digits?
The number the seller has provided is WDB126201A063323 I will e back and ask him to recheck the number.
I believe I have seen this is the past where a potential buyer was being furnished with just most of the number. Do you think this is a sign of a scam? Maybe the seller wants to look like he is cooperating but doesn't actually want a buyer to be able to run the numbers?
I haven't ever been hurt with online inspired purchases; but from what I have read here I am much more nervous!
