I've learn about covering a scooter. My paint went from a nice deep maroon to a pinkish pearl look. You have to lie the cheap painted Chinese plastics. The heat in Florida also caused my seat to dry out and come apart at the seam. You can definitely tell if a scooter has been garaged or not. I'll be buying a cover for mine after I give it a make over. I'll also cover any new scooter I buy. The sun and weather can and will destroy the looks.

I took my seat cover off to repair a split seam. They are really junk. It is the thinnest material possible for a seat. They cut the material so close there is barely room to repair a seam. A seat like mine is $44 on eBay, so no big deal next time a seam splits I will replace the entire seat, or just make a seat cover of better material myself.
I can see why the guy was tempted to repair his seat with blue duct tape.

As a seller I got phone calls like that as well as emails. I simply tell them I'll answer questions, but no negotiations until they show enough interest to come out and look at it.
None of them came to look at it. I have better success putting a sigh on it in my driveway.
As a buyer, I'm not about to make offers on Craig's List stuff, sight unseen.

I bought both mine off CL and it was simple
1- emailed I was interested
2- set time to meet at their place
3- got my cash went over to view it
4- showed my M1 and cash test drove it
5- ran VIN number with sheriffs station ( took 5 min)
6- loaded the thing and gone
I sell a lot off CL and being a honest man I never let my buyer feel it's shady
