That is a very old truck. It’s dated and it looks it. The F250 has been redesigned several times since then.

But more than that... It is a gas engine or diesel? I would RUN away from the diesel if it were me. Very high maintenance engine.

Another thing. Pictures are VERY deceiving. Any vehicle looks good 15 feet away. Especially when looking at a photograph. Don’t be surprised if your’re disappointed.

Original miles? Maybe. Check the Carfax.

In the end... If it starts, runs and drives, and you like it - buy it.

Personally, I’d never buy any vehicle unless I looked at it or had someone else inspect it. If you don’t do that at least get a Carfax on it.

Get the VIN and order a report from Carfax.com.

$35 for 1 VIN or 5 VINs for $45.

If it keeps you from making a mistake it’ll be the best money you’ve spent in a long time.

You need to go see it, drive it - possibly have a mechanic look it over.

Also, if it also turns out that they are willing to ship it to you for free and you can’t see it or drive it first, it’s a scam.

It’s probably a salvaged title.
