If anyone wants to hear a horror story about working with this person, PM me. In short, he basically sold me a VW Bus that had damage, said he would make it right and didn't back it up. Then, two weeks into it, the newly "rebuilt" motor blew up on the highway and he never helped make it right.

I would stay away from this seller. Again, hit me up if you want to learn more about my horrible experience with this person/company.

I posted some questions to the seller about one of his Brazilian type 3s and did not receive a reply. This was a 3-4 weeks back.

I removed the username / email of the user
Buses n Bugs
from this thread as the person texting is not this user.

I also see the phone # you posted listed in my scam phone # listing on the site now, which means some other people reported it as a scammer.

Buses n Bugs - If you see this post, you should post your reference video in the feedback thread linked from your ads here:

For those asking for references of previous customers I have received this video from a customer in California.

https://www.facebook.com/vwbusesnbugs/videos/497539484176048?sfns=mo

If you would like to reach out to him please send me a private message and I will be happy to share his contact and also from other previous customers that became good friends.

Guys, I haven't had this conversation and this is not my phone number. I have never had this number before. I always reach my customers using the following contacts:

He has a zillion ads because he's locating and listing VWs that are for sale locally and listing them here for more and (hopefully) making shipping and export easier for people outside Brazil.

As far as I know the people doing this sort of thing are almost never the owners.
I'm not sure how they handle answering questions about the cars or providing more detail or photos to interested buyers.

I'm not sure why there is no feedback yet given the amount of ads he has listed.

Everett, something is “strange” in my mind about this seller. I have never, in all of my years on the Samba ( thank you) seen so many busses for sale.... and absolutely NO Feedback. Just my 2 cents .

What is purpose of this post?

Those texts sound weird to me... sort of like a scammer
Phone # 603-824-3807

I wonder if someone is pretending to be that user?
Did he email you from that email address?
