They both exhibited classic scammer behavior, i.e., "I can't come see the bike because...military deployed, work commitments, etc., and they both wanted to use a complicated procedure to pay for and take possession of the bike. I shot them both down in flames, but I hope someone really wants to buy a great bike.
...and then you'll get the ones who insist on a "carfax" vehicle history report, but only through a company they recommend.
"My brother bought a bike where..." and a dozen other reasons why the report *must* come from a *specific* (not carfax) company. See web site below...
