How about locking the classified threads so only the poster can make changes?
Don't misread my intent, as I'm all about free speech. If you have something for sale, then it's yours for sale and your thread shouldn't be hijacked by someone that thinks you are over priced. If you are over priced, then you'll know it without someone telling you what an idiot you are for pricing it so high. If you want to tell everyone that the guys an idiot for pricing so high, then start a new thread. |

Well. I will admit I was the Big Offender this weekend. For some reason, after I donate Blood, I get real ornery for a couple days. I will try to remember that next donation and just stick to posting pictures in the Sandbox.
I was Not trying to bash the guy or his car. I will stand by the point I was trying to make - trying to sell a project car that has a long way to go for $41K in this economy is out of line. I would hope that, for instance, if I was selling a 120MPH Speedometer for $2,000 that someone would call me out T.C. |

I would hope that, for instance, if I was selling a 120MPH Speedometer for $2,000 that someone would call me out T.C. T.C.. Just because you think it is out of line doesn't make it so. There may very well be a buyer that has personal reasons that the car could be worth that to them. I JUST heard a story of a guy being offered well into six figures for a car that is worth about $25-30k. Hell, if I put an ad up selling my car for $100k, why would that be out of line? Now if I advertised it as an factory six or something fraudulent, that is different and it should be called out. But just because you personally think the price is out of line is no reason to publicly ridicule the guys ad. I see stuff all the time that I think is over priced because I can get it locally cheaper. I guess it really hits a nerve when someone has no intention of buying an item but they still chime in and tell others that it isn't worth what the seller is asking. Anyways...that is my .02.
