Thank you for your inquiry, we appreciate and acknowledge your interest in our services. Mr. Mark Stephen Woods is registered with us as the seller of a 1966 Volvo 122S Coupe with a clear title in his name. The vehicle is located in our warehouse from Tacoma WA, prepared and ready to be delivered. The complete sale price including the shipping is US $9,950.00.
Unfortunately, we cannot arrange pre-inspection because in Tacoma, WA is only a transit warehouse without any packing, cleaning or sealing materials. The vehicle has passed the inspection and now is inside a 20ft dedicated container sealed and ready to be shipped. There is no one there to handle the transaction.
VEHICLE INSPECTION REPORT - SUMMARY
This vehicle passes Puffin inspection. An owner's manual and spare key are included.
Encumbrance status - No encumbrance reported.
Written off status - No written off incidents reported.
Odometer reading - No odometer rollback reported.
Stolen status - No record of vehicle as stolen.
Cosmetic Condition - No flaws above normal wear were found.
The next step you should make in order to start the transaction is to visit our registration webpage: https://puffinshipping.com/register.php and complete the form below with your delivery details. Then make sure to forward your username to the seller because he must start the transaction with us and once everything is ready, we will contact you with all the details about payment and delivery.
After your payment is secured in one of our protection accounts, we are authorized to start the shipping procedures. If, by any chance, you reject the vehicle and request a refund, this will be issued to you within 3 business days and the vehicle will be returned back from where it came from. All the fees will be paid upfront and will be credited to the sender of the shipment.
Your vehicle will be moved using a specialty shipping system designed and tested to protect against damage and wear. Our drivers provide detailed inspection reports to the shipper and recipient with each move.
Our escrow program assures third-party protection for your goods and money over an Internet-based transaction. It works by securing the payment until the buyer receives, inspects and agrees the condition of the vehicle. The inspection period for such transactions is 1 to 10 days, depending on the agreement of the parties. In your case, the seller has signed for a "3 days inspection period", meaning that you will have 3 days to inspect the vehicle, take it to a workshop and do all the necessary checks (EG visual and mechanical condition, paperwork). The steps that the seller and the buyer have to proceed are detailed on our How It Works webpage.

This is where I decided this was a scam. I had printed out the Ebay listing from 2013 because I liked the car. When I checked the description of car as it was listed on Yupyi, the description was verbatim of the description used for the sale on Ebay.
