No I don't know this gentlemen from Adam, I care what these people do because they represent all of us. I don't want to be misrepresented.
On top of that, its down right wrong and it makes me angry to read about people doing that, people who email a stranger in retaliation. Its no ones business but the the two people who were originally involved. Its WRONG to email a stranger because your buddy says, "This guy screwed me, flame him for me will you." Thats so many levels of wrong its not funny.
"Yes its broken, but does that really surprise you?."
"What happened? What does it look like happened?!?!"
Dirtcrasher - are you refering to his use of "through" instead of "threw"? ha ha
quiet people seem intelligent
I think I agree about not retaliating. It was me that sent the original e-mail to him and told him about the all caps thing. I originally offered $800, then e-mailed my posted e-mail at $900. That was all. I think he just had a bad day and took it out on me. I agree with Louis. I guess it'll make all of us look foolish if we "gang bang" him. I would really like to own the trike, but it's out of my allowable range for the asking price for that model. If it was a cherry 350X, I would already be polishing it in my nice warm basement!Thanks to all for your opinions.
I wonder if he deleted his post because our forum guys was pounding on him? Oh well. Suely he did not know that his sassiness got nationwide attention.
You guys would have enjoyed the nice pics of his trike.
Later......
I low ball people on CL all the time. Screw people if they get pissed about it. It happens to me when I sell stuff too. Comes with the territory.
LOL, "road (rode) hard" and "then you through (threw) in the hint", "There is(are)very few", "you for no(any) price".
Maybe it is dumb to send him an email but it sure is fun to blow smoke up a jerks arse like him. It isn't any type of representation of 3WW or the members of 3WW unless it's referred to in a response to him.
I didn't see anything wrong in your email to him at all. I do believe it was worth more than your offer, but all he had to say was "I believe it's worth allot more than that, thanks for the offer".
No one should ever feel insulted by a low offer. Aren't most people living paycheck to paycheck? I think most of us try to pay as little as possible for anything we buy, or are we supposed to feel bad because someone put allot of hard work into their part? Should I not buy a TV on sale from Sears because it's a Black Friday sale and I got it for 40% less than the original price??![]()
All ya gotta say is "NO THANKS!!"
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
