[JRNYMNDAVID]

Ad #1601646 NOW..HE HAS A STORY AT THE BEGINNING OF HIS AD..

SELLER VERBALLY AGREED TO A TRADE WITH MY 67 NOVA SS PRO STREET.
ALSO AGREED TO MEET ME HALF WAY.I BORROWED A TRAILER AND WENT TO THE EXPENSE[$10K] OF BUYING A PICKUP TO TOW IT BACK.
HE GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND FOR TWO WEEKS AND FINALLY REFUSED TO ANSWER HIS CELL PHONE & FINALLY E-MAILED ME TO INFORM ME THERE HAD BEEN A DEATH IN THE FAMILY{ALL LIES}.HE WORKS FOR AN ELECTRONICS FIRM IN NEW YORK.
DO NOT TRUST THIS GUY! HE SOUNDS GENUINE,BUT,IS FAR FROM THAT!!!
I CAN PUT UP WITH THE TRUTH.I AM A BIG BOY.
THE UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT OF THIS SELLER TELLS ME HE WOULD NOT HESITATE TO SCREW SOMEONE ELSE.

Kind of sounds like you put the horse before the cart.

Nobody made you go and buy a truck and/or trailer to tow this car back.

You could have just as easily rented one the day you were to meet, and at most been out of the rental cost and your time.

You may as well add the cost in for a new keyboard, as it appears yours is damaged.

THAT'S "CART" BEFORE THE "HORSE!!"


Thank you for your understanding.No rental company rents with the purpose of towing,unless you go Uhaul + trailer @ a cost of$.99 per mile.
Cost would have been $900.00. The truck was 07 w/15K miles @ $214.00 per month.You do the math.
Besides I was asking for any $$$..just venting.

Thanks again

Well vent away and welcome aboard, I am Mark, Just watch for the wolf pack we go after scammers :!: :!:

[DirkaDirka]

See I dont see why he couldnt ask to borrow someones truck either. Would have saved him alot of money cuz all he would of had to do prolly was pay for gas.

[ashbros]

I'm confused :? :? :?

What would compell anyone to go buy a truck other than they wanted one...???

That was an unexpected hit into right field.

Sounds like he had to come up with a good excuse to buy the truck so the ol lady wouldn't give him a rash of crap for spending the milk money when she's expecting a BOOB JOB.

Let me see "A NEW TRUCK" or A NEW SET OF BOOBS" Thats a tough one....

Boy oh boy the things people will do to make you believe its the truth.

[rlabour]

First, I would like to say that I will respond once and once only, I don't think this needs to be an ongoing e-mail string, we are all adults. No one was scammed, he's just upset I didn't want to deal!

I was contacted by this gentleman in regards to trading my Chevelle, we did talk and I stated I would consider a trade, however the distance between us was the issue. I in no way ever verbally comitted to follow through, merely discussed with him several options on how we may proceed should we. He did state that he was going to buy a truck, however I encouraged him not to and to consider shipping the cars due to cost. Lets face it, I didn't want to drive that distance either.

Secondly, I think everyone on here will agree, we are talking about a total transaction of over $60k here, even a person with zero common sense would not act on anything until there were some monetary transaction or contract in place to secure the deal and protect themselves.

Thirdly, I did have some family issues, it's personal and needs no further comment. I have been a member here and on e-bay selling and buying for many years. Check my status and you will see nothing but 100% So here is the deal. My car is listed for approx 35K, to show I am not a scammer and stand up guy, I will sell the car flat out to you for $22K do the math, this is one hell of a deal. I don't thnk you bought a truck, you are just pissed off! Everone here can vouch now this is a vervbal contract. If you don't want it then that's fine to, I will hold this offer for 72 hours, after that it goes back up for sale. I am truly sorry if there was any confusion, but again I never gave you my word this would happen, and wouldn't have without some kind of monetary advance payment in good faith! I harbor no hard feelings for the slam and wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors! Life is too short!

I love posts that contain absolutes. For your FYI- if you really look you can find a per day rental on a pickup that will be used for towing. I purchased a '69 Z/28 in Ohio and traveled from Maryland- Rented the truck from a local rental place with a daily rate-disclosed that I would be towing. There was no problem at all.

Got to Ohio, picked up the trailer at the U-haul for a one way haul. Picked up and loaded the camaro, trailered it home and dropped the trailer at the U-haul and the truck at the rental place.

Long story short is that you wanted the pickup, and as the rest of the poster's said- $900 cost for transport is fair less than $10K and is not unrealistic for auto transport.

Go ahead and benchmark if you really care and start with DAS who will provide an easy quote.

You are good with words,but,that doesn't excuse the facts.
You are"not" a scammer,just unethical!
I would have accepted the truth,but,leaving a buyer hanging after an agreement,be it verbal,or,written,is wrong!I trusted you by mistake.
YOU KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT .

Funny, I would have thought Cedar Rapids was a larger city than Frederick Maryland-

But again when you speak in "absolutes" it means you checked every possibility and are in effect guaranteeing that you are correct.

So point of fact - You cannot rent a truck to tow in anywhere in Cedar Rapids for a daily rate and if you want that - Buy a truck.

Note made and time to move on.

[suicidebomb]

I've been to Cedar Rapids, it's bigger than Oskaloosa, and just for the record, I'da sprung for the boob job.

[DirkaDirka]

x2 on the boob job. They are MUCH funner than buying a truck

[TheRabbit]

I've been to Cedar Rapids, it's bigger than Oskaloosa, and just for the record, I'da sprung for the boob job.

Well now you bring up another idea. Could he have rented some boobs instead? That would have saved him a bunch and gotten better gas mileage too!!

[suicidebomb]

Well, I can't say about Cedar Rapids, but here in Independence, a guy can rent boobs, for an hour or so.

[DirkaDirka]

Well yeah renting them wouldnt be a bad idea. BUT someitmes they are out of the ones you want. So the ones you would end up with wouldnt be as fun.

[suicidebomb]

I agree, but sometimes sacrifices have to be made!!!

[TheRabbit]

A friend of mine is a lawyer and once told me if you want to get ride of your wife just buy her a boob job. Shortly after she'll be down the road with somebody else. :idea: :idea:

Whoops. He's either gonna laugh or be ticked off when he sees our helpfull ideas!! :oops: lol

[Scooterz]

Good Day Gents-

Let's back up.... what makes the seller a scammer here??? I do not see the seller as a unreasonable guy... he dropped from 35K to 22K??? If it is the Chevelle the buyer would love to have, then buy it!! Most people do not drop 13K publicly just to be a "Nice Guy"... he is ready, willing & able to deal for everone to see. Seller: I would take a second look at this. I personally have not seen the ad yet, but it sounds like you should not burn this bridge. JMO Scooter

PS: It is all too easy to ASSUME that someone is not telling the truth about a personal grievance in the mist of a deal... things do happen & I respect the seller for offering an apology & a solution...

[newjack42]

i agree with Rigsby on this one. And on the bright side you got a new truck and it seemed like a good deal. can never go wrong with a new truck.

[ashbros]

FYI

about a year ago I rented a Z 71 4x4 chevy pick up truck from enterprise for the whole weekend for 99 bucks unlimited miles....

I put over 700 miles on the truck. When I turned it in all the said is heres your receipt, have a nice day....

Ash- but you werent in Cedar Rapids were you? You can only rent them by the mile if you are going to tow in Iowa. Otherwise you'd have to buy a truck- ask JRNYMDAVID.

I second ya on that, but with the way the ecomony is, might be a good idea to just buy one boob at a time. :o
