Go to www.kbb.com and show your dad the book value of that car so he knows you're practically stealing that car!

Here, I did it for you. With the mileage, in "fair" condition, the book value is $3,755. And that'* Private Part value, not retail.

Now, I'm not suggesting that this would actually be an investment, but you'll only be paying half for a car that should last you a very long time.

I did reread those posts. It looked like the auction was on the up and up, but the second chance offer was the scam, like they usually are. *Never* accept a second chance offer on eBay.

But, if the original auction was also a scam, then I digress. It just didn't seem that way.
