Honor Payment
 

Now that you "made it right" with the buyer, how bout the honor payment???????????????????????

I dont have a problem with that.Ill send a check out tomorrow.

id want everyone to let it rest to if i got caught and was trying to cover my butt.scooter was just saying what most of us were thinking. good call scooter. your good at calling out the trash

I was trying to be nice, now he just sounds like a loser that got caught! Yeah, scooter has a lot of posts on here, so do I and a ton of others, its called a "forum". If you dont like reading it or better yet reading stuff about you..."DONT SELL MISREPRESENTED JUNK!" :evil:

i thought you had ordered the bearings yesterday? i still say his add on rj says it all.

Kw,none of my business,but I think he meant he is sending a check for the honor payment.

Sox,

Yep I make a few posts... some of which are simply to my friends here in basic conversation... but when something is wrong, it's wrong. You were wrong. I have let it go & I think the best we are going to get is done. I am done talking to you & you are welcome to trash me all you want; it only makes you look even worse. scoot

oh ok

This motor went 10.70 on Alky and went 11 Teens on gas.Low runs.

If those items are not present then its misrepresentation; also considered fraud. If money changed hands across state lines, then I believe it could be a federal crime. I could easily confirm that if necessary.

Now if the seller claims that is what he was told when he bought the engine and he is relaying that information to a new buyer; guess what? Doesn't matter, the seller is making a represntation and the liability transfers to the seller. Thats just the way it is. The seller is open to litigation and punitive damages as well including legal fees.

Should the buyer have that motor professionally checked by a local machine shop, and have a certified notarized statement of the internal componets, and they do not match what was represented, the buyer will win the judgement. No doubt. Then the smart buyer will file papers to garnish wages.

However, it appears a settlement has been made in the form of bearings. Hardly seems to equate with the representation versus the actual, but a settlement is a settlement. If all parties agree case closed.

Now on to Scooter.

A standard approach to a full on attack is to create a diversion to divert attention. The attack on you is to draw attention away from the culpability and possible liability of the seller. If he can get everyone focused on the confrontation, then focus diverts from the misrepresentation. Ignore the attack and stick to the facts-

Read the "Art of War" when you can, its long but amazingly in sync with business dealing and handling strategies.

Scoot always keep the pressure on.

If the bearings are received as both parties agreed, then issue is resolved, equitability becomes a non-factor.

Scorp

Agree
 

I agree with the Scorp. Scoot tells it as he sees it, and he seems to have pretty good vision...

Thanks to my friends for backing me up. I think we all have a clear understanding of a man's word. When that word is comprimised & then publicly challenged, I have no problem defending the victim. I have to agree w/ Scorp on this, he seller is deverting the attention to me in an attempt to change the subject. Anyways, thanks again & I would do a deal w/ any of you guys (Scorp, Harb, Fla, KW Tod, Double-d, etc...). You are all good guys!

Sox: This deal IS what it IS. The only bad part is that your denial prevents you from becomming more honest. In the end, you are the one who has to sleep at night with yourself. Again, there is alot more here at stake than a cheap set of bearings... but I am glad the dispute is over. Scooter

Well guy's I really appreciate all of your help and understanding with this matter. He(sox) say's bearings are on the way to me shipped from jegs. Motor is tore down, everything marked and boxed, going to machine shop on wednesday to be checked furthur, along with crankshaft . I have been getting e-mails from people I didn't even know offering either help or spare part's if needed . All I can say is, WOW . Thank's to all of you . It's going to cost some money to get it straight but I will know for sure what I have when I'm done . I will know more after the machine shop has a look .

Hey Sox

What goes around come's around. Thanks for everything or nothing. However you may see it. See ya at the drage strip.

Im at the track most Sundays come over and say HI.

Re: 355 motor
 

I'm sorry i'm stickin' my nose in now but...what are these "new" bearings suppose to fit if you are yet to get your parts checked???
Just a thought on my part. Not trying to stir things up any.

Bearings
 

I believe they are talking about cam bearings.

(Quote from Sox post at bottom of page 1)
and he said to make it right that I should buy him rod and main bearings and I agreed.


Maybe the crank won't need to be ground, and the bearings will work,
hopefully...................... :) GOOD LUCK

Thats what i thought i read. But then again age can effect memory at times.

Maybe they're file fit bearings... :roll: :mrgreen:

Now this is getting funny. And Sox was mad at me... JEEEZ, he ought to take a hard look at his OWN WORDS.

Hey are they something new or is that what the guy told you.LOL

lmao,beast.that's too damn funny.not trying to make light of the guy's situation,getting took sucks,just trying to lighten the mood a little in here.

Maybe Sox will go over and 'pour him some babbitt bearings'
if the Jegs bearings are the wrong size. :P
