So the seller would pay to have the car shipped to you, and then shipped back if you didn't like it, at no cost to you? Isn't that a bit odd?

Any offers to ship the car is a scam. Says so right on the front page of the autos listings. Lol. Everything you find on CL should be local and you should be able to go see it in person.

If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

Usually these sob stories or people in the "military" that are selling their cars are scams.
