Rantoul
Anyone live in Rantoul ? I’ve been talking to a person about a car I saw listed on Craigslist. He says he runs a small car lot called Advance Auto Resources at 401 S. Tanner st. In Rantoul. Google maps shows an empty parking lot, when he called me his number came up from Arizona, and in the pictures of the car the trees in the background have no leaves, kind of looks like March ish time frame. So I was wondering if anyone here can confirm it’s a business. I’m getting the feeling it’s a scam .

Cannot confirm, but it sure smells fishy.

if you are asking, sounds like your instincts are already telling you....I would be very weary. Stinks like a setup to me.

Call their chamber of commerce, see if they'll verify. Or city Hall.

I would not buy a car from a car lot that was vacant maybe 1 or 2 years ago. Phone number fishy too. Best of Luck which ever way you go, I would take the drive to check out the car but have a mechanic( google Rantoul mechanic reviews or maybe even yelp) set up to do a car check- $100 >?

Make sure you don't buy a rental car.

I went and took a look. They buy wrecked cars and half ass fix them to sell. I didn’t buy anything from them. Everything there looked pretty rough.
