When I see those descriptions of never cooked in or smoked in and stored in a heated garage and a good price it reminds me of those Scam ads we have seen. This does seem legit, but no phone number. Try replying to the ad Tom.

Good catch Bob. I should have pasted a portion of the text into Google and seen how many hits I got before I posted it. When I did that, I got a page full of identical posts all over the country. My apologies.

It doesn't hurt to post these scams when we determine that is what they are. It keeps us all reminded that they are out there and when something looks too good to be true, it probably is. I was thinking this one may have been legit by some of the description like about scuff marks in the fridge, and the pictures not being taken from a Scamp brochure. I'm guessing the scammer took someone else's ad and changed it some, but the "never cooked in and kept in a heated garage" always makes the ad questionable. Thanks for looking into it more Tom.

What fooled me was that it was actually a reasonable, not super cheap price in a less urban area.
