Thought We Could Use A Laugh!

I came across this beauty on e-bay! After reading his long winded post, I felt like giving somebody a beating!! Watch out, because if nobody buys this "gem"(was obviously a "racer" at onetime because it has a rollbar, all cars with rollbars must be racecars!), he will punish us and restore this collectible(don't push me, I'll show you, Tough Guy!), and put it back up here next year for $10,000 and dare you to buy it then!!!!!By the way, comes with an extra windshield, AND DON"T HAVE ME COME DOWN THERE FOR YOU EITHER, TOUGH GUY!!!!

READ WITH SAFETY GLASSES AND DON"T TAKE IT PERSONALLY AS I DID(I made an appointment to go see a councellor tomorrow)

Mr. Personality

Awesome communication and people skills! Guess nurse Ratchitt forgot to give someone their "happy" pills at the NY loonie bin yesterday. As the saying goes..." It doesn't TAKE all kinds, we just GOT all kinds" Maybe the CO board of directors would want to retain this guy's services to send "warm and fuzzy" greetings to all new members after their first post? ...Derek

Hasn't sold it because everyone is to afraid to bid on it, you might have to meet the guy and why give a demented person your address. Might just stuff it in your living room, then shoot you on the way out.

Funny, but I empathize with the guy. Worst thing about Ebay is the sheer VOLUME of idiots you have to deal with, compared to selling a car the old fashined way.

You know.....I'm from NJ originally and there are quite a few bad apples in the BIG APPLE but this guy here makes me sick! Hey Genious! We got the idea in the first paragraph that if we don't have the money then don't bid and why the hell did you have such a large font?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I felt like I was being screamed at just for even looking at the car. I mean I know there are morons and ignorant folk out there that love to mess with sellers on ebay but good god have a shot or two of jack and calm down before going ballistic on potential buyers. Thats the kind of ad that would keep me from even looking at the car let alone buy it.

True, but if it's such a problem, and we all know selling a car the old fashioned way is also a pain w/tire kickers and clowns, why keep putting it up there? Sometimes in life you have to take the good w/the bad...lif is too short to be so aggravated!

We could get him on a conference call with about 10 of us and keep bidding each other down. I think he would explode

Badd Andy - I think you & this guy could really hit it off - or did you already call him?!?

BTW - I'm a fan, keep those Ebay, CL, etc listings coming. I am constantly impressed w/ your ferreting ability & brutally honest assesments & backstories on some of the cars.

If he'd change his poor attitude, someone would bid!
I refuse to bid on things sold by ******** with bad attitudes. Trust is very lacking then...

This guy is a riot, better buy it... or else.

My favorite paragraph, You UK members should like it, or not.

"I was going to post a "BUY IT NOW" but from my experience that usually winds up getting selected by some fool from the UK or another 3rd world nation and they expect me to ship it for nothing and take their bogus out of country check. I already know the scams and bs so scammers keep it real as I'm on to you."

The UK or another third world nation??.

Keep it real... "He don't fool around".
