You are probably right. That happened with the 1950 I bought in September. Seller had it on Craigslist for $1,000. I called and told him I wanted it. We agreed on the price and I said I'd be there in two weeks.

The next day I went back on Craigslist and it was jacked to $1500. I emailed the guy and asked what was going on and he said him and his buddies had a few beers the night before and they told him it was worth at least $2,500 so he figured increasing by $500 was fair. I called his bluff, threatened him gently and he said he would honor our verbal agreement if I was there within two days to haul it away. I did. The truck is probably worth about $4-5,000 based on what I see on the ads so I did well.

But then weeks later, I found out he wasn't the owner. Long story and messy, but it is my 17-month old grandson's truck and we have clear title.
