RE: [Chrysler300] EBay scammers getting better

[Nancy Kramer <nekramer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was mainly thinking of selling parts not cars.  Prefer to sell cars or at 
least advertise them in our car clubs or naturally I do have American Dream 
Cars which gets quite a bit of traffic and seems to work well for others 
according to what they tell me.  I've actually gotten emails from people 
who sold their cars on American Dream Cars after they could not sell them 
in the Hershey Car Corral in one case and Ebay in another.

Regards,

Nancy Kramer
