What u think??

[batgeek]

if it sounds too good to be true, it's prolly not worth the time. IMO.

[CowsBitePeople]

Someone said u cant ship over 100 pounds through ups anyways or something:macho

[Flyin#3-1/2]

uh i think it's too good to be true, no way a freakin' 2002 speed would go for only $2000 and it's in mint condition....eh, but if you're a rich ******* like so many exriders out there;) then go for it and if you get ripped off, no big deal, only 2 grand:devil:

[trx400]

how can u even fit a quad in the back of a ups truck

[JJWB023]

lol yeah probably a scam being that they are going to ship a quad at their own expence...they started off"hi there. dear sir/madam"thats a sign of a scam...did they leave any contact info?

that is true........

[kabd69667]

if i'm buying a quad or a vehicle, i like the see it in person before i buy it.

yes...I couldnt even ship a bicycle with them cause the box I had it in was too big & it was about the size of sportrax 90 as I broke the bike down as far as I could. I am POSITIVE they cannot ship a quad through UPS & this scam isnt very well thought out. report them to the fbi & get them sent to jail with the contact info. they left Good Luck!;) :p

[CowsBitePeople]

[kamikaze_rzrbak]

You can ship packages up 150 lbs! I think the only way to ship a quad is in peices!!

[crazybuffalo]

id say its a scam but ya never know. it just seems too god to be true

[bansheeguy77]

the only way i would buy that is meet him to pick it up....you have the money with u and make sure its not a scam....but who in the right mind would sell a speed for 2 grand?

[CowsBitePeople]

I emailed him before i posted this thread and asked for some pics a number to call and if we could meet instead....But I have 2 dales soon anyways soo im good :) lol

[QuadR8cer12]
