Sounds to me like the man should have checked before he left I mean where the man lives is just to far to not check it to make sure its legit!! I mean if I drove hundreds of miles I'd be looking at the vehicle more closely. Just me though. I'm not taking sides but if the man really wanted to either trade back or fix it somehow he'd call first and get the other side of the story. Now and Anthony should have not listed it as a 406 unless he knew for sure. One more example of mis communication and just pure ingorance. But thats just my opinion.

Seth you are partly right but I think this fourm should be for adults. Although I think you made some good points I had rather keep this between adults, This is just my opinion but I think the fourm is for adults. I do not allow Anthony to post in the forum and I don't think you should be posting in here either. I am not trying to be smart but that is how I feel.

I dont think age matters on this forum as long as they dont act like children and I have seen some adults act like children on here! Seth made a valid point, pretty smart for his age I think but thats just my opinion...

this is a clean forum, cant see any problem with young guys on here as long as they dont act like children , burns has alway acted like an adult here. everybody has to start somewhere , if the young were not interested in our hobby it will die. jmo mike

I am told it get a 406 & I get a "305" ... almost one of the worst V8's I can think of. that is a problem... but there should be some due diligence applied on BOTH sides. Harb brings up a good point: check the cast numbers at time of sale. I work in the Archery buisness. If I sell a bow to someone & say it is 70lbs @ 337fps, it better be 70lbs & make speed when they get it!! They will find out anyways. It will get weighed & chronographed. If it doesn't, I AM AT FAULT. I will replace that bow... We have seen this too many times on here. As long as we learn from it, then I think it is a valuable lesson for many. In these days, we can pull the numbers off the block right then, google it on a phone, & there you have it... all the info a person needs. We have the technology to prevent these things from happening... even if there is no internet capable phone at the time. The buyer has some responsibility in this too. It is not like the buyer bought this rig "sight unseen". I mean, if we listen to everything we hear & believe it, we are in BIG trouble. That is like saying we believe that Obama promotes "Hope".... or that he is good for our economy.
BTW: I like you Seth... you seem like a good kid. Keep up the good work & God Bless.
