    2016 Triton 21TRX for $26,000. Is that too much??

    Saw a CL add on it today, and I got a response that they were in the hospital but would send me the pics and info I requested shortly...

    just once I'd like to catch a scammer and disable their writing device and probably their walking device. Ugh!

    In good condition with a 250Proxs it is worth $40K. Without an OB it is worth $26K.

    That’s a scam. They didn’t list the electronics or poles. Anyone selling a bass boat would list the electronics and poles. Looks like they copied and pasted a little of the standard features off tritons web site. I bet they would want an wire transfer to hold it.

    I hope it's worth more than 40K, since it was 65000+ 1.5 years ago. Depreciation is bad, but out west here you couldn't touch that boat for less than 50K

    Scam, single picture + the way it's written usually is a dead giveaway.

    I new it was a scam at first look, but I just had to reply and see what i got. According to the reply her name is Sally and poor Sally lost her husband 2 weeks ago and just wants it gone and will have eBay contact me shortly. Of course when I asked for the eBay item number as well as a picture of the title, (which of course she says is in her name).....sshhh. Nada.

    And Low book appears to be around $56k

    In the picture I could not tell if it had an OB so maybe it was in poor cond or an exceptional deal for just the hull at $26K. Based on that I just added$14k if it did have an OB which is about right for a 2yro 250proxs. This would be an equivalent deal. Yes these would be low values. My point was it might be the hull only or way below the low value for a poor cond boat and motor. Too good to be true.

    I always wondered what kind of person would fall for one of these scams.

    It’s posted in Raleigh Craigslist too and I almost reported here as well. Definitely a scam
