[OT] eBay: Shades of Dooma's M3?

http://consumerist.com/5028965/how-d...ed-the-vehicle

Summary - $15K for a $30K vehicle. I don't think this dealer will relent and actually sell the vehicle. But they deserve a prize for the best "dog ate my homework" excuse:

Quote:
We are devastated with our discovery this morning of a swarm of Africanized killer bees in the 2007 Sandpiper 325RG 5th wheel that you have a deposit on. We have used multiple poisons in an attempt eradicate them. We have vacuumed up the bees that covered the floors, cabinets, and furniture. We tried to clean the traces of honey on the countertops and cabinet tops as completely as possible. This is one of the terrible acts of Mother Nature we have in Arizona. As best we can determine, the bees entered from the door that had been left opened yesterday morning. The interior of this trailer does have a strong chemical odor from the poison and is TOXIC. Our insurance regulations prohibit us from selling this 5th wheel at this time.

Due to these circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to proceed with the sale of this 2007 Sandpiper 325RG 5th wheel. This vehicle is unsafe for occupancy or use. We are therefore refunding your deposit at this time. We have attached several photos. Watch EBay for other close-outs we will be posting soon.

Next time post this in the off-topic discussion thread.

However, that a pretty creative excuse.

Pat should have and independent party certify that the trail did in fact have this issue, which clearly never happened. THe he can sue the dealr from our right fraud.
