What not to say when selling a car
 

I kid you not
"I am the third owner. My Mom bought it at auction then I convinced her to sell it to me. The original owner killed himself in this wagon after killing his mom because she was beyond repair. If I could have I would have got a brake job and dropped a rebuilt engine into her because she turns heads when I drive her anywhere"

Oh, nice...

eBay, 'nuff said. The ads on that site are a real yardstick of the intellectual and social fiber of our society, which I find a bit discouraging to say the least.

Normally when someone starts a thread like this, they put a link to the thing they're talking about. Like this:

Oldsmobile : Other 4-door wagon, two seater | eBay

If I'm gonna buy a murder wagon, I'd want a better deal than $6,000. Probably doesn't need the AC replaced with the cold energy of the previous owner's ghost in there.

Speeder, Sorry I made it soo difficult.
Can't do it on ipad.

And reserve not yet met too. Wow.

Needs a suicide door conversion to bring that kind of money...

meet wagon. meet idiot.

I guess it depends on how he did it. Carbon monoxide poisoning will not leave the same kind of mark as a gunshot. I accidentally bought a BMW 2002 at a donor lot many years ago that the owner had killed himself in by gunshot. It was not disclosed, of course. There was a pool of half-dried blood soaking the carpet and floor behind the drivers seat. My dog found it first. Nastiest clean-up job ever.

I would be concerned about how long the guy "cooked" inside before he was found. Had a friend who left a cooler with chicken breasts in his trunk before he went on vacation. Two weeks later I opened the trunk of his car to find a smell beyond compare and a cooler full of fresh crawling maggots. Never did get the smell out of the car and he sold it a few months later at a major discount.

Oooooh. Chicken gone bad is a terrible smell.

We rented a car in Mexico I swear had to have been used to transport dead bodies, it smelled that bad!

Good point, Denis. We need to check the Carfax to see what happened.

Ohhh, that was baaaadd!
