I live in NC and want everyone to know he IS NOT talking about me. Just wanted folks that read my ads to know that. It would be great if when someone is identified by location to go ahead and name him/her as well. I may lose a sale because I put I am from NC in my ad and someone that read the above post will be thinking, don't buy from him it COULD be him. I put my full name, town, state and cell phone number in ALL my ads and most of my replies.
While we are on the subject:
Ricky the auction car hauler/car builder from Ohio, just wanted to thank you for talking my ear off for twenty minutes, requesting more pictures, they were taken, we would have sent them but you did not send your email address as promised. I also went to the shop, tried the 2 front Centerline wheels on my '68 Nova, they fit. I did all this because you promised to come get the wheels on Thursday as you passed thru my area with an already scheduled haul if they fit the '68. It is now Friday. How come I haven't seen nor heard from you Ricky? I took time to accomadate a potential buyer, only to be stood up again. I know I will be stood up again, but that knowledge will not affect the next potential customer, I will always take care of my end.
To those who think I am a smart a$$, I must point out to you. I am one of the few guys that WILL return a phone call or an email, I will reply to questions, send extra pictures and so forth. You can bet you will get a same day reply if sent before 5 p.m. EST. I will do all the things that most everyone complains about sellers NOT doing. I really believe the slow down in sales on RJ is 40% economy and 60% poor business habits.
BTW my sales are virtually non existent on RJ right now. Really should require an Ebay type format for sellers on here. Been selling 8 years on Ebay, never lost a cent.
Thanks for reading my vent! 8)
