Could be a scam.  You could email and ask for a phone number and where the bus can be seen.  I would not be surprised if the email that came back was a little strange.

Yes, it's somewhat fishy, so if you go to see it bring a couple of plus-sized buddies, but ITOH remember that not to ask is not to receive.

I use craigslist alot and that ad looks like a scam. Know several people who sent money out of the country for cars and motorcycles that never existed. It's the biggest scam on CL...

  Why even bother? If its not a scam, the guy obviously didnt think it was worthwhile to describe the Bus in any kind of detail or post decent pics of it. I dont think its a scam, I think the seller is a moron and the Bus is likely crap.

I emailed them and asked for a phone number. I told them that I wasnt to good with computers and would prefer to talk on the phone. We will see what happens.

Something about those photos is fishy.  I think I've seen those pictures somewhere else before (maybe it's still in a transit company's paint scheme but the paint stripe is familiar).  And it looks as though they're photos taken of other pictures that were covered in plastic and posted somewhere outside.  And, yeah, I'm going to ask $19K for a 29 year old bus when others like it are going for $6.5K and not post photos to show how much better than the competition it is.  It just smells really bad.
