All the concerns are common sense items. If you have your own business, you should be checking ID with any payment other than cash. I deal face to face and check ID with every piece of paperwork signed - Sales Receipts, Bills of Sale, Checks and Credit Card purchases. Yes I still take checks. Easy to verify identity with drivers license and never had an issue (in 7 years). For shipping transactions I use PayPal only and will ONLY ship to verified/confirmed shipping address. I get a tracking number and purchase insurance with every shipment. Some folks think insurance is the responsibility of the buyer, but it is actually the seller who needs the insurance. (But that is another topic)

This device is a great way for a small business to accept credit cards without the expense of a terminal, monthly maintenance fee and high fees for low-volume of transactions.

No one is buying the regular one, what makes them think this one will sell?

I have several friends who have purchased a 500... They are selling tons of them from what I can see. This one should move as quick.

...Make sure you have at least 4-5 thousand bucks in your account. If you parents/friends gift it to you, you'll need to fill out some gifting letter saying something along the lines of "this money is a gift and not to be paid back, it isn't just for the house" along with two previous month statements from that account.

MAKE SURE the 4-5 grand is your money. If you can't save at least that much cash, you shouldn't be looking to purchase a house. Pay down/off the debt you have. If you can purchase a house - make sure to purchase something you can afford. It is very easy to get into something expensive when you should be in something easy to pay for. Many folks purchase more house than they can actually afford. Being house poor is a situation many people find themselves in due to many factors.

If you can buy a house and the payment doesn't phase your bank account - you are doing it right. That 4-5 grand saved is a good safety net (start). Doing it right will allow you to sleep well at night knowing that you've got reserve in the bank to cover any "what if" that comes along.

All this is my .02 cents... Many folks will tell you the opposite and you can do whatever you want. My method allows me to have a nice house and whatever else I want without putting stress on the family. Money is not an issue at my house due to making good decisions - everyone should live like this. Good luck to you!

You should sell that in 5 minutes on CL. If anyone here buys it, I've got the glass you need for that window. It is worth every penny of the asking price! PM me if you have trouble selling it and want it gone.

(no clue who is selling it - just know these cars)

It is not that van, but it is still a beast!

I need to clear out some vehicles - anyone interested?

1991 Chevrolet Conversion Van G20 Hightop. This van is in great condition. Just added the tow package last year. Hitch, brake controller and wiring. Added a CD player and has a built in radar detector. Conversion includes VHS player and television. Cooler built into the floor with drain. Safe/lockbox in the floor as well. Rear couch power folding to a bed with extension - plenty of room for camping! I've only put 2800 miles on the van in the last 14 months, so it is time to let it go. Newer parts include fuel pump, tires, radiator and hoses... Van has 187k miles on it but looks like 87k. Tons of service records.

Does have a few issues:

Power windows work when they want (so I don't use them).

A/C needs charged - has a leak, but charge lasted the year.

Windshield fluid pump doesn't work.

Front brakes feel 'funny' sometimes. Feels like a collapsed brake line - comes with 2 new lines.

If you want a van. If you want to tow. If you like old conversion vans - this one could be for you.

Asking $1900.00 obo.

Quick clip (2) from the Sunday morning race on Grand-Am weekend at Mid-Ohio. Tons of video and these are just 2 quick clips. More to come when I have time. Will be back at Mid-Ohio this weekend for double regional (SCCA).

Can't check the link from work... Hope it works.
