    I am a bit nervous. The shipper haven't been able to contact the seller of the mercury cp. They tried to call and left messages on his voicemail.

    He sent his last email to me 11 days ago. He gave me his address (Afton, MN) and phone number, car was ready to be picked up.
    Just checked again and he had some positive feedback:

    Let's hope he will call back soon.

    Just got an email from the seller. Strange, he said he didn't receive any calls or voicemail from the shipper (Schumacher). Anyway, I am glad he did send me an email again and I hope it will turn out fine.

    From the sellers name on eBay and looking at the merchandise on his feedback sheet....I would presume he sells a lot of cars. Often times it gets confusing when dealing different cars at the same time through the phone and email. Glad he got back to you. I would stay on both the seller and shipper until it is on the ship.:D

    Yes, I would never buy from a seller with no feedback, he sold cars before and the feedback is positive. But he claims that he never received any calls from the shipper but now he called them so it looks like it will turn out fine. Man, I will be happy and relieved when I finally see my cp!

    Yes....I would have a hard time buying a car from across the pond and having it shipped. I would be an impatient, nervous wreck!:yup:

    Looks like a sweet machine. How much did the third party inspection cost and was it worth the money?

    Absolutely, he took lots and lots of pictures, tested the engine and the transmission and other technical stuff.
    $129. www.inspectmyride.com
    But I have not seen the car myself yet so I can only be sure their inspection is good when the car is here. I hope they did not miss anything.

    Beautiful Colony Park. I'd be dying to have it in my possession too. I'm sure it'll all work out. Good luck.
