Hi,
I\'ve received your email regarding the 2008 Keystone Outback 31rqs Sydney Edition . Length (feet) : 31 , Sleeping Capacity : 8 , Slide Outs : 1 ,Water Capacity (Gallons) : 41-50 ,Air Conditioners : 1 , Awnings : 2.The camper is still for sale and my asking price is $7000. It is a 2008 model loaded with everything. The camper is very well maintained and it has just been completely serviced. The camper is in perfect condition with clear title,no accidents, no liens or loans. I\'m an oceanographer and I\'m on sea at this moment, so I left the camper in Muskegon MI, at the shipping company, it\'s already packed and waiting to be shipped anywhere.
Here are some pictures with the camper : http://photobucket.com/2008_Keystone_Outback_31rqs

Hi again,
The price for the camper is $7,000 with shipping included,it will take no more than 2-3 days for the camper to arrive at your address. This camper it's in perfect condition, there's not even a scratch or any dents on it. You will receive the camper along with all the documents including title, bill of sale and more. I asked them to allow viewers to go there and inspect the camper but their reply was "We are not a showroom!" In this case,I will offer a 5-day period to inspect the camper from the moment you receive it. You'll have 5 days to inspect, test the camper before decided to keep it or not. If the camper is not like I described, you'll ship it back on my expense and they will give you a full refund. Amazon Payments will hold the funds until you receive the camper with all the papers work. Only after you confirm them that you wanna keep the camper they will release me the funds. In this way, you will be able to inspect the camper before committing to buy it.If you agree with these terms and you have the money, send me your complete name, delivery address and phone number to register you as my buyer.And also you'll receive all the transaction details from them (terms, buyer protection coverage, payment instructions, invoice for the purchase). Let me know!

Because "Rosa" wanted money up front, we requested the shipping company's information so we could 1. verify it's a real company & 2. confirm that this shipping company truly has the above mentioned trailer. At this point, we've yet to hear back from Rosa. We doubt that we ever will. For an oceanographer, this chick (or dude) has some really poor written English skills.
