yes i know it is a scan i offered asking price within a couple of hrs of advert being listed email how do they want paying etc but so far had just like the other offers NO RESPONSE so why bother doing the advert in the 1st place

Same reason you get 'silent' phone calls, these type of scammers, generally third world based, are putting out so many scam ads they can't keep up with them. A scammer will place these sort of ads by the 1000s, not just in the UK but in other countries so it might take a while for him to get back to the replies.

Go on HPI website & do online Cris check, with numbers from the 'van you are interested in. You have to pay for check with credit card online.

Its been removed off ebay....when we where looking for a caravan on Gumtree there was a van local and such a bargain  2010 at a bargain price of 6k !!!!!! I contacted the so called seller.....sent so many msges as no phone number was listed ...eventually got a txt msge that gave a google mail address ...and then got no  answer from that...I eventually got in touch with gumtree saying i thought it was a scam...they looked into it and agreed.....and removed it...but i can understand people falling for it ..I thought i was getting a bargain..... but my sensible head over ruled !!!
