RV sale on Craigslist

Palmdale,, California

Took my deposit but would not do needed TESTING to verify the workings of the RV
1986 Fleetwood Southwind. When we were not able to complete the transaction my $1500 deposit was gone and he would not get it back for me. He is a middle man but still must bear responsibility for the money that he collects and the accuracy of the ads he places.
Claims to be a Dr. of Hebrew studies from Drew university in Chicago. Sells a lot of Mustang parts on eBay and Craigslist. **** do not give Him a CASH deposit ****

hi - i would have used my real name and ID, but I could not log in. this RV transaction went bad in Palmdale, Ca - still has not been resolved. Very disappointed in this obviously educated and spiritual man. I am posting this as one more chance for him to make it right. Please Frank, you have my number. David

sorry Frank, i am sure it was just a misunderstanding, i am absolving you of guilt in this matter. I believe you were stuck in the middle, and that the holder of the title, and the owner of the RV were more to blame. Please accept my apology for this post, but i cant access it to take it down. if some one asks you about it, give them my number and I will explain it to them. David E.Schmidt.

I am the person accused of scamming David. If you are reading this silly blog, please know that I have never been in ownership of any RV and did not have any money in my possession from David for the possible sale of this vehicle. What happened is that I listed the RV for an auto body worker who was working on my Mustang GT. He asked me to list it for him because he did not speak English well and he needed to sell it . The RV was old and showed it age; to me, it was beyond ugly. However, David thought this was a good project and happily arranged to give the seller a down payment so that he would not sell it but hold it for him. According to David, he changed his mind twenty one days later but could not get his down payment returned; and he states that I did not help him to get his money returned. On the other hand, David thought that I was helping this Mexican auto body worker for a commission rather than out of kind; therefore, he held me responsible for getting him to travel down to Lancaster from Sugar Loaf in order to view and buy the RV. In addition, he stated that my description of the vehicle was not totally correct. David also held me responsible for his idea and initiative to arrange a down payment. In truth, this RV was never of any valve to me, nor did I have any legal or financial responsibility for it. From the date he first viewed it, David possessed a copy of the title and registration with the owner's full name and address and contact information. The auto body worker flat out refused to return the down payment and refused to meeting David, except for the reception of the final payment on a certain date as promised. As their deal evolved or devolved, David generated a list of repair demands for a vehicle that the owner was selling "as is." The owner refused to accommodate David's repair demands and was angry because he had missed other opportunities to sell his RV. Finally, for my part, I had been praying for the owner who was undergoing a financial hardship, and therefore I did not see any problem in listing the vehicle for him. But I never saw myself as taken any responsibility for a strait forward deal, without any down payment in it. The down payment was the problem, paying the owner to hold on to it and not sell it. Without the down payment there would be no complications. When David offered the down payment, the seller agreed to hold the vehicle until he would receive full payment within two weeks, which was his clear expectation.

To all who read this blog: I have been praying to God that my name and reputation would be removed from this site. I think that people have used it as part of a background check. Even though these comments do not a background check make. Finally, for the last month when I first noticed this blog and its effect, I have petitioned this site’s agent to remove my name. They have not responded to my emails and calls. As I am not a scammer, I want out of here. To the agents of this site, please remove this entire blog; remove my name from your site. This site has had the impact of witchcraft or divination on me; as people have given power to these blogs about me, it has destroyed my reputation and witness.
