I keep trying to stir things up, but everyone seems to be following the rules of the non-club

Oh, I never worry about buyers since I give the shit away anyway....no hassles

Are you people still talking about this?

I have people I trusted that still haven't paid for stuff.
I have sent free stuff to people who never returned the favor.
I have lost buys due to my own fault.
Paid too much for some stuff.
Paid too little for other stuff.
Gotten screwed.
Been told I screwed someone.

That door swings both ways. Whatever, life's too short. It's 39 degrees out, I think I'll go mow my lawn.

Soon there will be nothing left to beat!

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. Seeing JP use bad words is kinda like hearing your grandpa swear. Jen

Ya wanna see trusted, innocent looking, sweet little old people swear, work bingo for your local boys and girls club, parochial school, or youth group. Put a salty old Navy chief to shame .................................... The Cap'n

Sadly, I have seen the bingo players. They get really mad if you call Bingo and you didn't actually bingo. And they get even more pissed off if you Bingo for real.

You ought to try being a "vendor"! I'm glad it's not a full time gig, or I'd have to sell off my children!

I had a "shopper" a few months ago who put me through a bunch of quoting hoops, telling me he was going to get "several thousand dollars of sheet metal". So I give him the quote for a package, well he wants a break down, so I give him a break down. I spend probably two hours on the phone with the guy, and he's going to transfer funds and all. So a week and a half go by, and I don't hear anything from him, or see any transfer. I send him an e-mail saying "are you going to buy this stuff or are you just jerking me around?". I get this scathing e-mail saying what an ass I am and "you can keep all your damn parts".

I find out from another parts house that this guy is notorious for this, and has been banned by more than one vendor! Live and learn!

Hey! I resemble that remark!

I got a new wallet

Ron You rock baby!!!
Paypal makes things easier. I got what you want... Paypal me the money.... I send parts with follow up of shipping info.
EASY

If you send a check and long time member here I'll send parts and not wait for check to clear.

If we had prior good transaction I'll send parts with email that you want them. (don't happen often). Only good friends.

If you come to my house I may keep throwing parts in your car till you scream uncle or the car is full. Ya'll come on down Ya hear.

Absolutley hilarious! Probably one of the funniest... and to the point posts I have read in months!

Thanks for the entertainment...

Joe... damnit. I told you I was "interested" in that stuff. I can't believe you SOLD IT!!!

If I were the buyer in this case, I would be a little annoyed too. It's not that anyone has any obligation, but that's just the way I do business.


When I post something for sale, the first person to contact me has first right of refusal.

If the fifth person to contact me says 'I'll take it'. I send email to the first four saying 'pay or loose your spot in line'.

The only real lesson here (maybe) is to be very clear on your intent.

I've come very close to buying from fellow members here and have had the rug pulled out from under my feet on several occasions.

Isn't there a sense of morality among club members?

C'mon guys.....

This is not ebay....

Eric?

The best way to find what you've lost is to buy a replacement.
