My two weeks of vacation are almost up so, alas, my inquiries need to come to an end. But really, is there no limit to people's lack of realism?

Take this one:

Classic 1983 Mercedes 300D Turbo Diesel - $9500 (South Windsor)

Classic car in great condition. 1983 Mercedes Benz 300 D Sedan, Turbo diesel, gold, beautiful tan leather interior, exterior body great, mechanically sound, 192K miles....hard to find car and color. only 2 owners over life of car, non-smoking. call or text 860-305-4510. Generated lots of inquiries before we ever decided to sell....so now is your chance.

So I call on it just for fun. I ask if, considering the asking price, it's in "collector's condition." The guy goes on to say interior is really nice, but that the body does have some rust spots, but they haven't progressed much.

AND HE'S ASKING $9500!!!!!
