At one time all you needed was your Word, your word was usually good enough to believe someone. Not this time, I guess times have changed.:rolleyes:

After 21 pm's and 3 phone conversations, in my eyes and from what I've heard it was a go on buying this person's car. After the third phone conversation the person had asked me if I was really serious about buying his car and I said yes, he then told me he had someone else that was offering him 500 more than what I was offering, but I did say to him, if you can get more for your car from someone else then go for it and that my feelings would not be hurt in anyway and that I would understand.

So he then said to me, ( which is what gets me the worst ) that he told that other guy that he had all ready had someone (me) that was going to buy the car, and that he was going to stand by his word and sell it to me since I sounded like a stand up guy, serious and ready to buy, so I told him cool, I'll be there Saturday morning at the time we discussed.

Well Sat. morning rolled around, picked up my cousin and headed up to Lebanon OH, I'm from Erlanger KY btw. Drove an hour to get up there, pulled up in front of his house and called him to let him know I was there to buy the car. BUT instead, someone else answers the phone and asked who I was, I told him I was here to buy the mustang, then I was told, he SOLD it last night...I was like WTF.

Dude you know who you are, I'll give you that chance to come forward and at least just explain to me here what happened. I'm usually a calm guy and down to earth. With our phone conversations you sounded like a good guy as well...but what you pulled was a dick move. All you had to do was just give me that curtious phone call to let me know instead of letting me waste my time, my cousins time and a half tank of gas to come up there.

So in a nutshell, you wasted my time and backed out on a deal, I had the $4k in my pocket ready to buy your car. So yeah, I'm pissed but what can I do :rolleyes:

Since I'm a nice guy I'm going to give you that chance to come here and at least give a half decent reason why you pulled that stunt....or I'll just call you out and then you can defend yourself here with everyone else.
And yeah, this is a soft spoken rant...it could get alot worse with all the name calling and what not, but that's not me. For someone to have been here on the boards for a long time I did not expect this from you.

Yes it does, and I'm not saying the buyer knew anything about it, I believe the seller was playing both sides of the fence on this one, but what I don't get is, the seller knew I was coming :rolleyes:

I was told $4k...but in the other thread the guy gave $3k plus a playstation...guess the seller wanted his games...can't fault him for that...but what I fault him for is, not giving me common decency to call so I didn't waste my time or someone else's time...because I sure as hell wouldn't have wasted his time :mad:

Someone from North Carolina offered 500 more but he wasn't sure if the guy was coming, but knew I was a solidified deal and said he would hold it for me since he was a stand up guy. I guess when he stood up he managed to trip himself.

First off man lets get this straight...talked to you wednesday...then you called me again thursday morning at 11:15 asking me if I for SURE if I was going to buy...and I told you yes I am sure...we talked for 10-15 minutes about the car, so it wasn't like a 10 sec phone call. I like how you change your fucking story to meet your needs...way to go. On the deposite side...you should have said something....in your statement there is this huge fucking gap in your story. Better get your story straight.
On a last note...you never said call me Friday...I told you I was going to be there Saturday morning, because you were so concerned about me sending someone up there to traler the car back, just because you said there was a little something wrong with first gear slipping coming to a stop.

I feel ya too, I was gonna buy one last saturday, but the seller told me saturday morning that something happened to the pressure plate and the clutch cable broke.
Then monday night i found it on craigslist for three hundred dollars more , with no mention of a new clutch or cable. shady huh? i would of given him 300 more without thinking about it if he had asked! Luckily this happened tho cause a day later a buddy got a hold of me and offered me his lx for the same price and its unmolested and needs less! So it worked out. Dont worry mustanger, it was probably for the best anyway.

I always ask for a deposit.

When I sold my bike in december, guy said he was coming up this way for an auction in 2 weeks.

I asked for a deposit, he pay pal'd $1000 bones.

If I want something, I always pay pal a deposit.

Nice deals always go quick.

Amen. At least have the balls to man up and say you were in the wrong if you know you screwed a fellow banger over. Everyone now knows who it was and has made one post in his defense. Had I gone to pick a car up and it was sold from underneath me I would have been hot to say the least. It shows what kind of person you are not to blow a head gasket on the guy and be a mature adult. And as far as putting a deposit down on a car, if a guy is going to screw you over this way, why would you trust him with a deposit is that mightier than his word?

Beef when I bought my rims from you I gave you a deposit that same day Kenny called you. Because I wanted you to know I was serious and didnt want them sold out from under me, and that with me being a 1000 post memeber and a referral from a friend, you didnt ask for a deposit so i'm not saying you did but I'm saying if for those out there memeber or not if you're serious about buying something and don't want it sold out from under you leave a deposit. Granted this guy should have called you and you should have called before you went, i'm just saying if your serious cash talks.

Its bad when low rent fucks use the phrase "I was here when Vinny was around and know this and that and blah blah blah" just to make you feel better not knowing your about to get fucked over. Pretty shitty. Im sorry but even if you know who was "one here" when Vin was around it still don't make him a better person. Just words. Lying words used to fool another person. That's pretty bad.

When someone says I was here when Vinny was around, that kinda makes you automatically think they are an old school 'banger and that they are an upstanding member... not a fucktard. Someone you can look up to, someone you can trust. Not a douchebag. Its a shame that someone would attempt to use that in their advantage and try to polish their image.

Its bad when low rent fucks use the phrase "I was here when Vinny was around and know this and that and blah blah blah" just to make you feel better not knowing your about to get fucked over. Pretty shitty. Im sorry but even if you know who was "one here" when Vin was around it still don't make him a better person. Just words. Lying words used to fool another person. That's pretty bad.

When someone says I was here when Vinny was around, that kinda makes you automatically think they are an old school 'banger and that they are an upstanding member... not a fucktard. Someone you can look up to, someone you can trust. Not a douchebag. Its a shame that someone would attempt to use that in their advantage and try to polish their image.

I'll 2nd that!!!

Evil8 you hit that nail on the head. Maybe shady was getting him back for proposing a ban.
