rarely get a response.  Some will but many have the same "opinion" as this
guy.

If they don't respond I just figure they don't want to sell it that bad.  I
just start looking for another one!!  He'll learn if he doesn't sell it.


Talk about sketchy...There's a 1990 90 for sale on Ebay for $3000 (at the
moment).  It had 155k miles. The sketchy part was that it had 155k miles on
a 4 cylinder???  What???  That wasn't a possibility.  Link:

r=0&t=0

If the 4 cyl isn't a typo than someone is buying an 80 when they think
they're buying a 90.  It might tick someone off!!

The moral of the story: You really have to read carefully on Ebay!!  And if
the seller isn't cooperating leave him high and dry....there may be a
reason!!

Later!!
