that their idea of "good condition" was the same as mine.
Signed the paperwork (was from a dealer) and flew back. Was
only in Adelaide for 4 hours.

Payment = Bank cheque. This way it is 100% traceable if they run off with
your money. If you have done REVS check and have the license
papers and cross referenced it with some for of ID (their drivers
license) then there is very little they can get away with.

If in doubt, take a camera and get them to pose with the cheque
you give them. If they run off then the pic makes a great "wanted"
poster.

I guess you can fly there, pay for it, then take it then and there
and drive it yourself to the local trucking company ready for
shipment.
