I responded to a cl post a guy wanted a t-5 transmission, bellhousing, transmission mount and a gas tank. I responded to the post telling the guy i had a 91 t-5 with under 70k, a hurst short shifter (the kind with the posative stops), Bellhousing, Aftermarket trans-mount and a gas tank with pump and sending unit. I told the guy 500.00. He was like you are out of your FUCKING mind. He said he buys working t-5 for 100-150 all the time. Have any of you on this site found working t-5's for that price??? Sorry for the rant this guy just got to me. I though i was giving this guy a deal?

I was going to start another thread but I'll just highjack this one.......
Another WTF is with CL people. Early in the day I called and spoke with a guy about a dirt bike, we set up a time to take care of the deal tonight...no call from him as he said he would / can't get ahold of him. Another guy I delt with today had a 95 GT F/S. Said he would call at a set up time so we could finish the deal and nothing. Called him... mailbox full, no answer.
I would have bought both vehicles. If they are sold at least call and tell me that. WTF flakey CL people. ![[Mad]](mad.gif)

Funniest part about "CASH IN HAND" is yeah thanx mr i state the fu#king obvious!!! like i am going to accept any other payment than cash.for ex:
i had a 70mm throttle body and spacer and i had it up for $75 and this guy emails me and says " I got $40 cash n hand right now and i'll come pick it up" so i sent him an email back saying "thats great u have $40 in ur i am also now holding $40 in my hand too!"
