    Default Stolen 1994 VR SS

    hi i wasnt sure where to post this so i figured id put it here if its not the right place just move it or remove it and let me know where to put it. earlyer in the week my 94' VR SS got stolen. i was selling it to a guy in sydney and had it transported there. I was expecting the payment on monday and he was stuffing me around all day. i got a call from the truck driver early tuesday morning telling me that the place he droped it off at a) wasn't the place i specified and b) the guys that were there were rather large people that he wouldnt want to mess with (had to remove some words as they were offencive and raceist). I had the car listed on carsales.com.au and thats how hte guy got my contact info. i have been to the police about it but there isnt much they can do as it was a civil agreement and only for $5,000. i was hoping to post it up here in the for sale section but cant now but i wish i had. anyway this is basicaly a warning that this is happening and if you are selling a car be very careful who you deal with.

    It was a bit stupid not getting a deposit, but its too late now. Best of luck with it though, I hope everything works out alright for you.

    Thats such a **** of a act, id be phoning a few mates if the authority proves useless and going around kitted up to the gills to forcefully retake ownership. I get ripped off 500 bucks on ebay and im swinging to the other side of the country to retrieve it, 5k i would be definately be going in a bit heavier handed.
