RE: Something funky on eBay- labontefan, kathybrj, wayfarer?

[got woody?]

 Calling any/all 2002 Utah owners:
 
 Or maybe even any Coleman owners this or last model year:
 
 There is a listing on eBay for an  02 Utah but something about it does not feel right.
 
 The canvas trim and the graphics on the side of the picture they have posted look suspiciously (sp?) like the new  03 color scheme.
 
 I don t have a brochure for the  02s but I m pretty sure this aint one
 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2403024464&category=6727
 
 Does this picture show an  02 or  03 model?  
 
 And if it s an  03, what s up with that?
 
 I will not bid on/buy something like this sight unseen.
 
 I emailed the seller to see if I could come take a look at it, and I d like to know roof history, but the seller has yet to get back to me.
 
 All seems a little funky, and it s a shame because it could be just what I m looking for.
 
 Any thoughts?

Wait until you have a chance to talk with the seller.  If it is nearby, then try to inspect it yourself.  If you still don t have a good feeling about it, then walk-away as there are too many good used campers out there.... you ll find the right one if you are patient.  
 
 When I was looking to upgrade from my Jayco to a pop-up with a slide-out, I looked at e-bay too.  Several good buys had their auctions ended by the seller.  It appears that you can work out a deal with the seller offline if the seller and you work out a selling price and conditions.  Just a thought if you continue to look at this camper and others on e-bay.......

Somethings not quite right, the main pic is froma dealers indoor lot and It looks lik an 03 to me also besides you d be able to see the bike rack in that picture; and the other 2 pictures are from brochures. So there s no actual picture of the PU.
 Since your in the neighborhood Woody you should go and look at it if your interested. The price is right but no idea what he s got for a reserve.

No doubt it is a 2003, I bet the person took a picture of the trailer at a dealers lot and didn t want to show off the actual trailer.

It s also interesting that this is the first item this seller has ever listed on E-Bay.  That s an awfully big item to start with.
 
 Due to this fact you have no feedback or history to base an opinion of the seller on.
 
 I agree with your being uncomfortable.

I do not believe it is an  02 Utah. The colors are all wrong. I looked at it quickly when you posted the link on the for sale forum. After looking at it again, I thought it looked more like a 2003.
 
 For something as large as a camper, IMHO, I would wait until something comes along that you can go look at and inspect.

I would definitely use an escrow service ........
