Certainly sounds suspicous but I have sent an email:
I am interested in the boat you have advertised however along the lines of:
Quote:
1) Do you have the original VAT receipt? (proof of VAT paid) 2) Where has she been used? (Salt water or Fresh water) 3) Any survey report? (necessary for insurance purposes) 4) Where in the UK is she lying at the moment.? 5) Would it be possible to view the boat before bidding/buying? 6) Are you the first owner?
Regards
If the owner answers then maybe kosher if no reply then definitely a con IMHO.
I will post again here if I receive a reply. ----------
