Too bad it's in Toronto. You'd be putting quite the trust in someone.

Well...two things come to mind...seeing is believing and another old axiom, If it seems too good to be true, it likely isn't...now I've bought things off kijiji from Toronto, Quebec, elsewhere Ontario - but am fortunate in most cases to have a friend look over and pick up...that being said if I didn't already have, I'd be interested. However the whole call back thing looks shady to me. Just don't get your hopes up on this one...

Nope. Sent e-mail. No reply. Just checked - ad is still up.
So maybe someone got to it already (assuming it's for real).
I'll keep yas posted if I hear anything.

Nope nothing here either. I did buy my grainfather from a guy in ON, transferred him the money via EMT and he sent me the shipping notification, even deducted 50 bucks because he couldn't find the grain stopper part. paid 600 plus shipping and the only issue was a cracked base. I have bought motorcycle parts on kijiji before as well, typically I look and see how long the user is been on Kijiji and also get their cell number to text back and forth. I won't send money to the kijiji email address, I will only do that seperate. First brew is bubbling away this week. Another going on this weekend.
