Wtf cash for photos well must not be interested in work I also would ask for pics to see what his or the work on the frame looks like
Posted by Duncan Motors (Member # 7045) on
:
no cash for photos, i wanted to see he had all the cash before i tear the car apart and clean it out for a full photo shoot before he says oh he only has a 1000 nor less or even 1500. show pics of cash ill show pics of car.

Take the time to take pictures and you wouldn't have to ask people to send pictures of themselves holding money, at some point you'll have to clean the car out to sale it, either do it now or later. Regardless your going to have to clean it.

You did go a little too far with that. Pics of cash? I could google "pics of cash" and get exactly that. You were only wasting both of your time with that.
Next time, just say, $2,000 firm no less. If that's cool with you, I'll get a few pictures for you today. It's a roller, the pictures don't need to be professional, only presentable.

true thats what i trully meant but i worded it different i geuss, ive just been bombarded with window shoppers, and being always over loaded with work, to take the time out and take those pics after unloading the car is just a lot of time. i guess im just getting grumpy. people ask for pics all the time for stuff, never pans out. real interested folks come and take a look or would show me the money, i feel your asking me for something i can ask in return something. ori i offered the car in question to a guy that was really looking for a car, this guy snake king just chimed in and said he wanted pics.

texas really im not caring if i sell it, kind of a spur of the moment impulse thing. unload it then reload it, can take a better part of my day. i just have better things to do, show me the cash and we can talk is just my motto maybe cause i deal with idiots all day. my experience is the ones that get all bent out of shape are the broke ones and the ones are serious follow thru, hasn't failed me yet but i got a consiouse an wasn't tryna be rude.

If you were serious about selling it I would think you'd have pics ready to go. At least I would.

i meant window shoppers in general not continuous shoppers on this car, this was my own personal car that i just had my first impulse of selling, so no i didnt have any pics of this car unlike close to 5000 items i already have documented with pics for e bay or craigslist or here to sell. selling the car in question was a fluke an again i wasn't per paired to sell, i just thought dam i dont wana move another car when i get out of here within this next year. if i do i do if i dont i wont. i should of took some pics of this build though some of my best work went in this ride maybe thats why im grumpy on the matter, anyways thanks guys i dont wana be a dick, maybe my area has made me harsh and not trust nobody ill try and keep a better people to people ethics work relations. just call me grumpy duncan i geuss.

Bro, I think you were wrong. I don't think you had to clean it, you just had to take pics of it all dirty. It didn't matter.....
About the pic of the money, I'm sorry I'm not going to the bank pulling out money to take a pic with, than depositing it back in. That is just ridiculous. Unless you really got the feeling that he didn't really have the money, that is a different story. We all know those type....

Here you go, where's the pictures lol

If someone told me to take a picture of cash before he sent me any pictures of the car, i would have acted the same too. It sounds like if anything, you wasted his time and yours! Usually when i sell something, and somebody asks me for pics, i will always send it to them. Even if the deal falls through, because the next day or two that person might come around and buy it. Its just part of being a salesman, be respectful to buyers and you get respect back. People want to feel happy and proud at the end of their purchase no matter what it is.

I would have cleared it out left the shit dirty take some flicks and if the deal falls through at least you have em for the next guy

Also you could recycle those same pictures for te next 20 people who ask you for them.
Posted by Robb (Member # 9444) on

Most people dont have $2k in cash floating around so you expected the guy to run up to the bank, withdraw $2k to take a picture of so you can take pictures(something you should already have) of the car youre selling?
Posted by stangin' (Member # 514) on
:
i vote for too RUDE, lol. if im going to spend 2k on something, i would like to see pictures first especially if i have to make a long drive out. think about it. if you want him to take your word for it then why cant you take his word for it. note that it's 2k firm and you're good. now if the guy shows up with 1500 then you pee on him, case closed .

You were just having one of those moments and the fact that you actually posted this shows me that you do have some remorse for being a dick in the situation lol. But I guess it happens sometimes, just slow down a bit and stop playing checkers like the rest of the people out there. You gotta play the game as if it's chess, three moves ahead.
Shoulda said; I run a busy shop and don't have the time or resources to take pictures until maybe after the holidays( even tho I know your Jew, maybe Hanukkah isn't over yet) lol. But your free to come down and check it out. That way if they are serious they'll make the trip.
You don't want some clown texting you pics like this, cause you know they'll never come thru

Fuck that. Buyers think they are obligated to shit, if they ain't happy they can move on. Free market.

You ain't rude you was just being real with these window shoppers, and I bet you have these before

Now wheres the pics?
Posted by Camara90 (Member # 134) on
:
I don't even look at for sale ads without pictures. If a seller cant take the time to put pictures in the ad I think they are as serious about selling the item as a window shopper purchasing. This all could have been avoided by a proper for sale ad. Some peoples idea of clean are my opinion of a bucket, pics help clarify the situation but dont always tell the whole story.
Just my opinion, good luck with the sale.

Terrible way to sell a car or even attempt to sell a car. Interest YOU to sell it? LoL wow.
Posted by Duncan Motors (Member # 7045) on
:
yeah interest me! im not openly selling it, show me any add i made to advertise it, i told one person,cause at least the ori guy made the effort to make a want to buy a notch add in the ford sale section. no body else did any thing out of there way to look or purchase this vehicle other than send me some pics comment, therefore the guy i contacted made the first and only effort got my attention. passerbuyers looky loo,s gotta interest me before i just waste my time sending out pics, sometime i get 15 pics request a day on the other 5000 things i am trying to sell. im really not caring too either way if i sell this car or not, i could care less if i sold it, one day i had a itch to maybe sell it, the next day i didnt and then other people that seen the ori post to the real legit guy person looking for what i had, then everybody else started chiming in just wanting pics, i wasn't into it and have dealt with thousands of window shoppers just wanting to see pics to just entertain there fantasy car world. the guy i responded to had a wanted post, nobody else did but they all wanted pics? window looker classic responses, some dumb comments on here for real! until any of u have anything store front or offer anything to the public on a major life supporting way i dont expect u to understand, owning a business and running it,, being swamped running it solely can take a toll and make u a grumpy duncan as well. this was my personnel car not something on the chopping block on craiglist, i never made a add to sell this car, i mentioned it to somebody else that actually made a serious attempt at buying one, and everybody else is entitled to what? funny.
