Thanks guys
looks like the common consensus is to leave it be as its non of my business. one car in particular shows way less miles than what showed when i scanned the vin. i am the person that asks a million questions especially if im not local and tend to drive people nuts. My uncle is a wholesaler and ive been going to all the auctions for over 20 years now, i can usually recognize paintwork no problem and for the most part know what im looking for which is why i havent found the right car yet. glad i asked, dont like dishonesty but i dont want to be a rat. one response said a sucker will buy the car from him. ill just assume the members on the forum are not suckers.

Besides, odo manipulation is fraud. Car enthusiasts should look out for each other. Don't let scammers win.
^^^This, we are a community, we should be helping each other out, if the discrepancies are big, by all mean post on their for sale post. This will keep all sellers honest. I know I would.
Look at it this way, you are posting facts, let the buyers read and decide on their own. And I strongly agree, "Don't Let Scammers win"

No offense, OP, but I think the 'buyer' also has some responsibility in the process.
You have to ask a lot of questions. Ask for more pics.
If you find yourself time and time again getting hit with forgotten details, you're not asking enough.
They're trying to sell a car that is older in age now, been driven aggressively, and is USED.
Its tough buying these cars now a days, but stay with it, the right one will come along to you.
There will be some aggravation along the way.
But I wouldn't rat people out though. chalk it up to lesson learned.
