OK guys---I just had someone ask me for the story of what the deal really consisted of. Almost sounded like a accusation of me lying. You want the story, here it is. He called me on the car and quized me on a few things. Including price obviously. I originally told him the bottom dollar on the car was $14,500 and not a dime less. He wanted me to meet him part way with the car and I said no. Couldn't do it for that price. I was already losing my butt on the car bigtime. He said ok and he'd think about it. The next day a small tire camaro popped up on RJ that looked like exactly what I was looking for. I called the guy--had him send some pics and also got his bottom dollar on the car he was selling. He told me $13,500--no less. I called wayne back up and told him that if this car was what I wanted for the $13,500 that he could take my car for $13,500. But ONLY AFTER I went and looked at the other car and had money down on it. I also told wayne again that he had to come all the way to get this car. I arranged it quickly and headed across the state over to Minn. to see this other camaro. I told wayne several times that I would only let the car go @ that price if I bought this other one. I called wayne and left him a message on his cell phone and emailed him the next morning telling him that I was going to go over and look at the other car that evening and I'd let him know. Go figure--he didn't call me back until we were half way across Wis. He then told me he had already left and had about 3 hours into the trip up to get the firebird. At that point I got pretty irritated and kept asking him why he'd leave when he knew the sale was contingant on the other car. No answer to that question and then of course he lost signal and he didn't reach me back for about another 5-6 hours. We got to the other car and it was junk. I obviosuly wasn't going to buy it so I told wayne he had better have 14.5 with him and it better be cash or he might as well head home. He deliberatly left right away(lie) so he wouldn't miss out on the deal. He started pulling this crap about how I'm not a man of my word---bla bla bla. I told him he better have the cash and he better be to my place before 6:00 a.m. because I had to get to work by 6:30. He lied about where he was the entire time. He hadn't even left when he told us he was a few hours into it. We figured he would reach my house by no later than 1:30 a.m. Geeez, he showed up at 5:55. When he had $13,500 I should've told him to head his snake ass right back where he came from, but he agreed to send me the rest of the cash and that I'd hold the title and I also have this receipt showing he owed me the grand. I should've known better, but live and learn I guess. He owes me a grand and I will get it at some point. My pics should make this pretty obvious to figure out guys.
