| Yeah,that doesn't sound right either.And,I notice that the email to contact is almost like the one in the questionable scam ad that I posted about,an Exiss 2006 all aluminum stock with side tack for $5200.It is south.fun@gmail and this one says south.funcenter@gmail. Seems odd,to me.One is in CA and the other Texas,one says to contact John,the other "Mr.J."I notified Dave about the one that I have seen,and I emailed about it to the email listed,but,no reply as of yet. | |

| Ad has been marked fraud. I got an email from the guy "John." He said the transaction would be handled through Equine.I sent the email to Equine,and they had already removed the ad from their site.I sent him some questions about the trailer,which,he never answered,of course. | |

| I had the same experience with the same person. He sent lots of pictures and even his phone number! When I told him I was having a friend come see the trailer and needed an address, it suddenly was sold! | |

| I didn't think of that one.WIsh I had.I emailed him a couple of questions about it,that only a horse person would know,such as the size/capacity of the axles,and was it a straight load,slant,ect.(which,I already knew myself.) He never replied,and his ad suddenly disappeared off of HTW,and Equine said they removed the ad,also from their site. | |

Location: KY | This is the reply I received from the kellystevens email address
Hello,
First of all I want to thank you for your interest for my 2005 Shadow 3 Horse Slant Load Gooseneck.The trailer is still available,I sell it at this price because i just finished the divorce with my husband. When the divorce has finished i own this trailer. Now as a women i don't need it. This trailer is in excellent working conditions, slightly used in 100% working and looking conditions.From the beginning you have to know that for the payment I request ONLY secure pay, I prefer the payment to be done using eBay services so both of us can be protected.We will use a safe payment method because I am affiliated at eBay and I have a purchase protection account for $20.000. The final price that I want for this trailer is $3800 including shipping and handling.
I will wait your answer(if you are interested to buy) very soon!
Thank you | |

| THey all start out and say several of the same remarks.Here is the one on the Exiss trailer that I spotted:Hi,
I still have the horse trailer,the price is $5,2OO,I am located in ORLANDO,FL and the trailer is here too.I'm selling my farm and I don't need this trailer anymore.If you want to purchase it let me know so we can talk about this.What I can tell you now is that the price includes shipping and handling to your location.Feel free to e mail if you need to know anything.
Thanks !
JOHN P.S : Please don't ask me questions like "why is it listed there and it's for sell in other location" because the reason it's very simple :The listing was paid with my credit card which has the old address. So,I guess his credit card is being billed to the Old address,too???? | |

| And here is the second response I received from him: Hello,
I'm glad that you are interested in the trailer.Here are a few things that you might want to know about the trailer and the transaction.First of all i have to tell you that the last price is $5200,the trailer is in a good condition and as soon as you''ll buy it you''ll be able to use it.It was never damaged and the title is clear.The transaction will take place through Equine,this way we will be both protected.The price includes the delivery to your location and it will take no more than 8 working days.In order to start the transaction I need your address for the delivery process and your full name for the bill of sale.This way I''ll be able to open a case with Equine''s Team.
As soon as I''ll have the info I''ve requested they will contact you as soon as possible.
Thank you !
John,
As soon as he had the info he requested,I'd be getting contacted,all right,with a bunch of bills ! | |

| HA HA,yes,I noticed that,too! A foreign woman,perhaps,and,a lot of them DON'T have use for a trailer,but,they usually don't get divorced either.(You know what I am talking about here.) And how about "Mr.J",expecting me to believe that his credit card still had his old address,therefore,that's where the trailer ad came up showing the location of the trailer? I told him,'Man,you and that trailer sure are mobile,you'all have gone from one end of the country to the other overnight!" | |

Location: KY | You all may enjoy the next installment of this escapade: I can't met you at the shipping company because I am in London right now on a business trip, and I will spend another 2 weeks in Europe.
So if you want to buy it I will have it shipped to your place.
Please let me know because I have other buyers.
Thank you
