Hello,

Thanks for taking the time to look at my listing. I am glad that you are interested in my vehicle. Please allow me to introduce myself:

My name is Eva Davis, I'm 47 years old, and I'm the owner of the 2002 Toyota Camry XLE. We bought this car in June 2002 with 1K miles. It has always been my second car and stored in the garage. It's been out in the snow only twice and rarely sees rain. Was drive it at least twice a week, sometimes more, but its almost always highway mileage. Always adult driven and never tracked or abused. Non-smoker. The car has been professionally maintained by Toyota dealer. Annual oil changes and inspections.
It's registered in my name, and the title is clean clear (no loan or lien). Has 99,141 miles, without any mechanical problems, tires and wheels are in great shape as well, electric is working perfectly. The engine runs excellent and the automatic transmission shifts perfectly.
I'm selling this vehicle because I am currently disabled, I was implicated in the accident with my husband in his car, he died and I am now without my legs this is the reason for what I want to sell it as soon as possible at $500.
The vehicle is priced for a fast sale, so it would be better if you don't need financing.

If you have any other questions or need more info, please free to ask.

As you can judge for yourself from the pictures - the exterior and interior is clean while the seats show almost no wear!


I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi again and thank you that you get back to me,

As I told you in my first email, I'm disabled and I have moved to my parents home in Hamilton, Montana because I think they are only people who can help me to pass this challenging situation. I research myself about Amazon to help me to sell the vehicle. I saw that they have more people that trust them. Now, I'm currently signed up for a protection program offered by Amazon, and I would like to close the deal with them. If you don't know, Amazon is the best Platform for transportation, so we can both be protected and insured. Is the most secure solution for an online business. The two parts (seller and buyer) are protected.
The sale is strictly run according to the rules and regulations of the Federal Government. The vehicle is in Amazon custody in Hamilton, Montana at their shipping company ready to be shipped with all the documents. The shipping will be free because my husband worked for the US Army and I have these facilities from them.

I will use Amazon in this transaction for our protection.
I need your full name, shipping address and phone number, so I can initiate the transaction. Once the transaction is started, Amazon Payments will contact you with all the information.
Before the shipment starts, you must send a payment guarantee to Amazon Payments Company. You should understand that you will not send me any money upfront, you just put the money in an Amazon Payments trust account. If by any reason you won't be satisfied, the company will return your deposit payment in 48 hours.
After you will receive the vehicle with all the necessary papers (clear title, bill of sale signed by me, user’s manual, insurance, etc.). you 5 days inspection period to drive and inspect the vehicle condition. You can go to any local car dealer to check the vehicle. If you refuse the vehicle, Amazon Payments will come and pick up the vehicle from your location with no expense.
You will instruct the Amazon Payments with your decision. Once you inspected the vehicle and decided to keep it, they will release me the money. Since you have vehicle documents and the sale contract, then you can easy register the vehicle into your name.

Amazon Payments holds your money safe until you confirm that this vehicle is what you have been expected and you want to buy it. It is not a sight unseen deal.
On the other hand, I can ship my vehicle knowing Amazon Payments has your money and you won't "disappear" with my vehicle. We are both covered. Sorry for the long emails I have tried to touch all bases.

P.S. If you want to continue the purchase, please reply with your full name, delivery address and phone number so I can start the transaction with Amazon Payments and ask them to send you the terms of this deal. ( with no further obligation or fees).

God bless you
