The price is not for negotiate

Just what is it with all the scammers on Craigslist? Just about every other ad I see for a vehicle is an escrow scam.

The original ad looks legit, but then you get this in broken English...

I will ship the product with this company ...You will have 7 days in what you can look at it ...... days in what the escrow service will not pay me ...they will wait for you to confirm them that everything is ok ...if you
will not like it ...you will get all your money back...If you will think
something doesn't work good,like i have told or,you will be able to return it
back without paying any taxes ...and you will get all your money back ...I know
