Thinking of selling my old 50's filterqueen on craigslist & I have a buyer with a big sad story about his sick mom & him waiting for money from a big US transaction & this is his dream machine & he will send an US associate to buy the vac with check or money order.
Anyway seems fishy & isn't UK electric different?


I don't know why a guy from the UK is reading Los Angeles craigslist & wanting my name address & phone number.

his email is a gmail.com isn't that a free google email?

"seems fishy"

You've answered your own questions, Christine. This is not a buyer, this is a Troll out trawling for gullible gulp-able fish.

DO NOT ENGAGE IN FURTHER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THIS PERSON AND DELETE THE EMAIL immediately!

Thanks
I've been getting alot of the so sorry you are selling your stuff if you need money heres a starter kit for $2 type but this one started normal & I didn't know where they lived as if you can really know.

Shame you got to deal with this stuff.
Least I sold a lux 2100 today so made some hose money.
I'd do ebay or here but the shipping is so expensive & the packaging & dragging big boxes to the PO is alot of work.

I deleted the message.
I can;t see how this guy has some US associate convieniently located to where I am to come pick up this vac & what ship it to the UK?

Also the mention of money order or check is not what I want.

So I keep it after all it is a filterqueen & whats one more...LOL
