VA Thoughts on this Bronco?

NEK_Bronco · Jun 6, 2017

I'm in the early stages of looking for my first Bronco, so I've been watching the prices for the past few months. This bronco appears to be under priced, any thoughts? There aren't many pictures, but what is there looks clean.

Looks EXTREMELY underpriced to me!! Compared to ones for sale over the past several years, that COULD be a high $20's to low $30's Bronco - UNLESS the body is shot or NO title or whatever.

BUYER BEWARE....if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!!!

Didn't notice if there was a phone # for contact or not, if so call and look at it THOROUGHLY or get a member to go with you.

Atlanta phone number, wording in ad is similar to other scams, worth a call but doubt it's legit

Phone number is from Atlanta GA.. Its listed in VA.... It was recently sold in OR (where the pics came from):

And it appears to be underpriced..... I could be wrong but my money is on a scam....

I mean, email them and start asking questions,
but as above we've seen the photos before and the incongruities don't help.

But if you can meet someone in person at that Bronco with an in-hand title, I'd have a cashiers check for them.

Everyone always makes a major issue of phone number and location not matching up, but with cell phones these days, not everyone changes them if they relocate.

My youngest brother lived in Alaska for 8 years and never changed his cell number from his Pittsburgh, Pa. number. Know several other friends who have not changed either.

Probably isn't legit, but just because the phone and location don't jive doesn't automatically mean it is a scam.

Message says it is a text mail subscriber....run, scam alert for sure!!!!!

No one said it was automatically a scam or the phone number was a major issue.

Members (including you and I) have been pointing out potential red flags to a new member looking to buy that asked for input, and this ad has multiple red flags. When the red flags pile up, the scale tips towards scam.

Scam.....I had a member actually go by the address listed on the website they have and a complete different dealer is there in that location with different phone number. I emailed as well as left a voice mail with them and a rep called me back.... I asked a couple of questions and then asked where they are located and if it was the address on the website and he said yes. I told him I had a local guy stop by to look at it the nite before and ...CLICK he hung up. SCAM,!

Had another friend call and they same rep called him back wanting him to leave a deposit...said it would be gone by the weekend if he didn't . SCAM!

It's a scam. Found this same bronco listed truly for around $45,000-50,000. Someone snagged the real photos and listed it. Sorry to give the bad news!

anyone actually have pictures of their Bronco listed for sale by someone else on CL? Lots of scams out there - I am just waiting for the day when pictures of mine get listed for sale....
