I finally got one!

"Hello,
how are you doing hope fine?I wish to refer you to the advert you placed on the website. i'm interested in buying your Gregor aluminum boat 13 feet . Haven't taken a good look at your advert hence you said the price is $ 1800.so i'll like to know your last price on it ..though have seen the condition of it and pix and i really like it, but i still want you to Please confirm it's availability and conditions,If there are more information on it please feel free to send it to me ... In terms of shipping, that would be taken care of by me (personally).I look forward to have business done with you soonest.
Regards " I feel so honored, to enter into the sacred society of people who have had a scam attempted on them through sales of items over the internet. Actually, when I first saw the email, I was kinda stoked thinking that maybe I'd finally get rid of that boat from my yard! It seems like with everything that I attempt to sell, I get a barrage of people making me extreme lowball offers. I have always tried to price thing for a good deal, but now I have to price high because of all these shrarks that seem to get a thrill out of making a deal. When I see something that I want to buy, if the price is too high, then I walk away. Maybe it's a cultural thing with the bargainers.BTW, anyone need a little fishing boat?

If you'd had the boat in New Orleans not long ago....

Today must be my lucky day, I just got a bogus email from a Paypal imitator phishing for my password and credit card numbers.

I got one of those too...somebody must get your number whether you are buying or selling from ebay, since I've never sold, only bought. What's funny? I've never signed up for paypal, consider it too risky.
