My lovely 1978 vw bus Tinkerbell is available and as charming as the pics are, she's even more amazing in person.

I should hope so since you stole a picture of my lovely 1978 vw bus Wilson for your scammer ad! It didn't take much effort to Google "vw campmobile" for the original. Your awesome Photoshop skills almost fooled me.

I’m not sure but no doubt it’s amazing. I do appreciate the generous $19,500 appraisal on mine.

Re: My lovely 1978 vw bus Tinkerbell
I'd sure leave a message in the "comment on this ad" button. That and contact someone at GoWesty.
I sent them an email to see what they would say.
Hello
I’m interested in the ‘78 Westy you have posted for sale on GoWesty’s classifieds. Are there any more photos that you could send me. Maybe some of the actual bus you are trying to sell?
Thanks

The ad has been removed...
It turns out that the seller posted their real contact info. I found their address and even a photo of the seller inside their gallery. Google Maps shows a vanagon parked around the corner but no photos of Tinkerbell.
I sent an email asking for additional photos. I really want to see what this $19,500 bus looks like.

Do you think they ever guessed that the real owner would see the picture much less call them out?

Re: My lovely 1978 vw bus Tinkerbell
I did finally receive a few pictures of some other bus but the dirty engine compartment didn't scream Buy Me at $19,500.
That was the first time I've been to GoWesty.com in years. I didn't even know that they had classified ads. I imagine my expression looked a little bit like Marsellus Wallace when I realized that I was looking at my own bus.

Re: My lovely 1978 vw bus Tinkerbell
I found another ad using a picture of my bus. This time it's a place in British Columbia that claims to rent a 1979 campmobile named Casper. I left a note on their Facebook page, just in case they weren't aware that Casper didn't pose for the photo.

Do you get the sense that people really like your original Taigagrun?
How polite did you manage to be?

Re: My lovely 1978 vw bus Tinkerbell
I can understand their love for the Talgagrun. It makes me smile too. I just don't like the shady way they are using my photo in a commercial ad. If they aren't going to ask my permission, at least be honest and make it clear that the photo isn't of the actual bus for sale/rent.
I think I was as polite as could be expected on their Facebook page...

You are using a copyrighted photo of my 1978 VW Campmobile on your website without my permission. The ad claims it's a picture of "Casper", your 1979 campmobile for rent but it's obviously a photo that was downloaded from my Photobucket account.

"Dear A**Wipes,
You f**king losers can't be serious, is your c**p so shoddy that you can't even take a f**king picture of your own wares? How pathetic is that? Did YOU get screwed by false advertising when you met your bonobo "date" online, too? NOW YOU'RE PAYING US BACK? Is every instant you have to breathe on Earth so f**king intolerable that you have to scurry behind your cheap LIES like a cockroach??
Get my bus off your bogus site or you WILL be hosting a visit from me at a time of my choosing that will end extremely badly for you. Ya scumsucking lowlife bottom-feeders don't deserve air-cooled Volkswagen karma.
