Guy shows up in a truck with a whole crew of 4 others. Hands me keys but doesn't get out. I walk over and try the keys, they work the door, but the battery on the truck was dead. Go back over to the "Owner" and tell him battery was dead. One of the crew asks if I have the money. I let him know I didn't get a chance to get to the bank. Another crew member says we'll meet in the morning, they'll bring a new battery, I bring the cash and we'll do the deal. Now the whole time my spidey senses have been going nuts, even when checking the truck, I never took my eyes of the "Crew". I let them know I'll call them in the morning if I'm still interested and we leave it at that. Never called back. Pretty sure if I'd mentioned or flashed cash, I would of been rolled that night.
