I purchased my first bus about three months ago. I didn't go into it without any thought. I looked at several localy with my mechanics . We looked for weeks on ebay. Finally purchased one from gumtree 12 hours drive away. Im an experienced long term ebayer , but I've never EVER found such a mine field when trying to purchase an item as when trying to find a nice vw t2. Not just ebay but gumtree and pre loved the scammers are unreal. Trying to get u to wire money etc etc. We got do sick of it in the end it nearly put us off buying one. I can't stress how the vw camper van market is so full of scammers. Im surprised it don't get more mentions on here. i wouldn't won't to have to do the search again !!!

echo shiplee - I'm currently trying to buy my first bay, and it's mad how many scammers there are out there on all the sale forums. It was a real rollercoaster of emotion at first, but sadly it's taken the shine off me looking a bit and I'm no longer getting my hopes up for any ads until they show they aren't scammers.

Like Mick, I'm sorry my first post on here (which is an excellent forum, I just feel I don't have much to add until I have more experience!) isn't a happier one.
