They are the scum of the earth, this has nothing to do with an offer on my Mustang, but just in general, a guy selling a BBK Intake for $85 on here, good price, a guy offers $50, what the fuck, I sold my Pontiac for $3500, I got so many $2500 "Cash in Hand" offers.
There is only one thing I hate more than a lowballer, it's a lowballer with cash in hand.

LOL it is the American way. Just say no. Do you go to a car lot, or buy a house and just pay the listed price or do you negotiate?

i cant stand lowballers myself but it comes w/ the territory. stangs are considered econo cars so ppl into these cars especially on this forum are always looking for the lowest price possible. i dont think the same can be said about some wealthy person looking to buy a 100k mercedes.
the cash in hand statement is retarded...im wondering what other form of payment are these low ballers think you'll accept otherthan cash? credit, check or trades? lol

Some people need a few days to get the money for something expensive like a car. If you're trying to sell a car quickly, someone with "cash in hand" might be an attractive deal to get the car out of their lives faster.
As for lowballers, I had my car listed for $2k and the guy asked me if I could lower the price any so I put it down to $1800 to be nice. But then the guy shows up with only $1500. I was not happy as we had both already agreed on $1800, but I wanted the car out of there so I gave it to him.

Well if you list a item for "Best Offer" or O.B.O. then you got to expect that. I have been guilty of the lowball a few times, and I think for the most part we all have. It actually comes with the territory of selling used items. Most of the times I give what is asked tho. Funny thing I bought a fender or something from blown67 and he wanted 35 bucks. I got there and somehow he ended up saying give me 25. I still gave him 35, a good price is a good price.
Not sure if he remembers that.

Never know until you ask... Why pay 5000 for a car when the guy would have taken 4000, when all you had to do was ask.

EXACTLY
If you are firm on a price, FUCKING PUT THE PRICE AND PUT "FIRM." Then just delete the "offers." Is it really tearing up your world

It was just a post, nothing serious, but lowballers are right there with car salesman and lawyers.
-------------------- Yellow94GT never touched anyone's sig or banned anyone, so I'm going to quit spreading that rumor. It's not like I have any proof anyways. All yellow94gt and other mods have done is volunteer their time to help other people buy/sell parts, learn how to make their cars go faster and meet fellow enthusiasts. I'm a hater, but it's hard to hate on these facts. I have saved hunrdeds, maybe thousands of dollars here buying and selling parts over the years alone, but I don't care, this website owes me damnit, and I'll piss on it as much as I want. Us haters gonna hate. Why contribute to something when you can take for free? I act like I'm@Age15 I make friends on the internet that are@Age18 I was picked on in my youth so I became a bully@Age24 My mouth started to run 24/7 on the internet, but my car never at the track@Age26 First pubic hair@Age30 Troll@Age31 My internet friends and I ALL just got the boot for good!@Age31 Yes, you read it right, 31 and just as childish as my fresh out of highschool internet friends@31 Oh yeah, this isn't my website, so no one has to ask for my permission to change my sig. Hell, not like I pay the CAFORDS bill, so why should they need my permission to put what they want on their site? We're all guests here. Maybe some of us should start acting like guests or leave?
