Gotta love getting screwed over by friends! (what would dfwmustangs do)

[Wicked98Snake]

It is amazing how big of a pain in the ass selling something can become. I just don't understand people these days, when I tell someone I will buy something I always go through with it and show up on time to get it. I had a guy just this weekend who was "very interested" in my camaro not show up.

I have had a ton of people tell me they were coming to look at my mustang and then just never show up or call again. If you don't like it after talking to me just say ok and hang up don't set a time to come and then never show. It's crazy.

little update:

finished the tune, did everything to the best of my abilities, car picked up quite a bit of power (seat of the pants dyno), and he was happy. i feel it was the "right" thing to do.

as for the transmission, i got a PM from a board member wanting it, we agreed on the price and i agreed to hold on to it for him until the weekend. turned down another board member in the mean time. weekend comes, turns out the board member just gives me the guys number who is actually buying it, i try to set something up but am told he can't pick it up until monday. here it is monday and i just got a text, "found a power glide, thanks though".

bunch of shady fucking people out there.

Thats why you don't hold parts with out a deposit. first come first serve. Money talks bullshit walks...

Exactly.

James, no offense but you learn lessons like I do...the hard way!

I agree with everyone, the agreement was he'd pick it up Saturday, then it was Friday night, then it was Monday, now he bailed. If it were just some Joe I'd have done a first with cash gets it, but the guy who contacted me is pretty well known on here and I've met him so I figured it'd be good. Turns out it was for his buddy who is a flake.

Oh well, I'll sell it to someone who is not a shit head.

You should of txt that sorry fuker and told his ass if he still wanted it. When someone was willing to pay full price for it.

I got the PM from you about it first, we made the deal (for your buddy) then literally a few hours later I get a pm from someone else who wanted it. I wrote him back (as he can vouch for) that "when it rains it pours, just made a deal on it, sorry". It'd have been pretty fucked up for me to have bailed on the deal because someone offered me a few more bucks, in retrospect that's exactly what I should have done. No good deed goes unpunished.

Too much trouble to loan to friends or family. I'll never do it again.

Yeah but what do you tell em? Its harder to tell a close friend or a family no than it is with someone you barely know.

i see where you are going with that and i'm not coming after your business and using info/help you've given me to make made cash y0.

Even if you did, did you sign some kind of non-compete? Thats biz-ness . Was he like "now i know im teaching you this, but dont you ever use the knowledge to make money..." lol

"Every time I've loaned money I have lost a friend. Sorry. not gonna do it. Here's the number to a credit union that does personal loans "

I would take the Cartman approach. Call and ask if he's gay because he really fucked you,

[Sleeper]

Once you sell a few things you will learn whom ever gets the cash in your hand first wins.

I had a guy help me out once and let me buy a 3550 and pay him out. I made it a priority and paid it off in a couple weeks.

I was also 18 and poor.
