I'd change the first couple of words, "sir, your son contacted me about buying my car. My car wasn't for sale, no ads anywhere, and he reached out to me to buy." Then continue on.

I'd want to make sure that the father knows you're not an aggressive seller that won't back down, just a car enthusiast that was given a worthwhile "make me move" offer

Not a terrible ideal honestly!

But who to say the owner works a shift there? 8 years ago my dad was always working on site, but now he doesn't for example.

Granted he is almost 69. I hold the store side down, he holds the office side down

No, never. Knowing the origins of +65,000 separates the all-time team from the rookies. I guess knowing of Planter would also separate the two groups, but we will not bring him/her/it into this. I'm sorry that I just did! LOL

It's worth a shot. If you don't want to, I will. Shoot me a pm with the info and I'll find out if they're liars or buyers.

Let's wait until Friday night and see what happens

His IG only has 5 pics. Only 200 friends in FB. I don't mean for that to come off the wrong way

So I wouldn't say he has a large social/media precense

I guess my time is more valuable than that. A 10 minute conversation with his 'dad' will tell you everything you need to know. It'll either confirm suspicions or it will put your mind at ease knowing it's the real deal. If you're unwilling to do that for yourself, in my opinion, you're either;

A. afraid of the truth
B. feeding in to this whole hoax
C. trolling

There might be a D, E, F, etc...but those would be the biggest three for me. Just call and find out for yourself.

You bring up great points. I'm definitely not afraid to call

I should have been more specific as to why I can't call now, the hours are 430-830. They are only open for less than 30 hours a week


It's in the mountains in the middle of nowhere really.

So wait a few hours and call today. Don't wait until Friday.

This is all an elaborate hoax by the op to promote his vehicle.



I kid, or am i?


150 posts ago, I'd say no way. Now, I'd say there's a chance.

I can see why some may feel that way, it is what it is.

At that point I'm better to just ask the guy to give me his dad's cell.

No? That makes you look like a crazy psycho. If you call the restaurant and start small talk and explain your concerns and how you wanted to make sure he was ok with everything... 1.) You're going to get the father's trust, 2.) you're going to know if it's real or not, 3.) it'll take 10 minutes and you'll have all of your answers.

If you ask the kid for his dad's number, you look like a jerk.

All hinges on if his dad works there, on a slow Thursday night, before busy season, he might not be.

Reviews like this make me believe he doesn't work there every day like I do at my place


What I also want to make sure is if this info does go public (why I cropped out busiess name), that nobody here goes and leaves bad reviews or something stupid. I'd like that kept out

If he's not there, it would be pretty easy to say "he's trying to buy my car, and I need to get a hold of him. Call me at _________________, or can you give me the best number to reach him at?"
