I did something stupid

I purchased my current ride sight unseen back in 2006. My Mom had passed and left me
a small inheritance. I always drove newer MoPar's but it had been a while since I had a classic.
I found a clean looking 72 SSP on ebay in Arizona. The seller was originally from NY but moved to
a small town outside of Scottsdale. He had the listing also at a Corvette dealer he was working
out of. There was a "Buy it now" option that included free shipping (I am in NY) and there was ebay/PP
insurance on it for over the purchase price. The car was rust free and being in NY that was super important
but there was no way for me to put eyes on the car. I was able to call the guy and talk to him. Seemed straight up.
I checked BBB on the business and that was OK. I called the local police and asked if they knew the business and
they told me that they were good people. I was still nervous but pulled the trigger a few days later.
The car showed up about 3 weeks later on an open carrier. Aside from the gas cap missing and no fuel
(I'm sure it was the shipper) it was awesome and better than I expected however I feel I got pretty lucky.
Maybe Mom was looking over me.
