For some reason I'm always suspicious of adds with odd pricing amounts...$2522. Why $2522...why not $2500 or $2550? Especially on something that old. It's not like someone added features/options and the total price came to $2522.

If it sounds too good to be true, I copy the posting title and Google it. Suspicion is confirmed when the exact same posting shows up in a Craigslist ad in Baltimore, Kingsport and Siuox Falls.

Another tip off is poor word usage. Like someone who doesn't speak a lick of English wrote it using freetranslation.com.
