Today he’s taking a train to Houston, getting on a bus to Victoria, and pulling into town at 1:30 Tuesday morning. He’ll be staying for what’s left of the night in the local Motel 6.
Tonight after work I’ll drive my old commute-to-work car over to the Motel 6 and leave it there overnight. Then in the morning I’ll drive to the motel in the van, collect my cash, sign over the title, and head to work. My buyer can then hit the road for New Orleans in his new (to him) Dodge van!
Sounds like a perfect plan, right?
But the cynic in me wonders . . . What if:
I know. I’m being paranoid.
But I just wonder why his cell phone area code AND his eBay member profile zip code both originate in Buffalo, NY. That does make me curious.
Tune in tomorrow for what I’m sure will be a boring, routine conclusion to this mystery.

I am not naturally a suspicious person, but your fears are probably well-grounded. Can you take someone with you for the actual exchange?
I'd be supicious, too. Take someone with you, if possible. Preferably, a very large male friend.
Not to add to your paranoia, but that actually happened to us!
Number 1, that is.
We still have the title, and the old truck is out there somewhere. We never got the rest. Luckily, it wasn't that much money.
Personally, number 3 would be the one my mind would conjure up, as well.
