In the past few months, a select few have joined the board and taken it upon themselves to make their own rules. I have been posting for about 3 years and bought thousands of $ worth of parts and several trucks from some really great guys. I have also sold several trucks and had happy buyers. I always try to provide as many pictures of anything I sell and a discription of the truck or parts as best as I can. I also have been known to throw in a few free extras to make the deal a bit better in some cases. As of recent, I have been PM'ed by a few new members telling me that I have F***ed them because I didn't wait long enough for them to respond to a add and have sold to the next person. I feel that attitude isn't called for as I feel I have always given anyone a fair shake at buying parts from me and myself at buying anything from them. I have been beat out of some really great deals in the past , but I have not replied to the other people in the thread by telling them to "get a life" or how I F***ed one of their buddys out of anything. I, myself resent being PM'd by these new kids blasting me as to how I choose to sell my parts. I always try to sell to the first post, but, if I get no reply in a timely manner, I go on to the next. I feel that is my choice. My prices are fair and I try to keep by the rules.
Im 30 seconds away from posting a few names of the new kids on the block that do nothing but try to whine about missing out because they didnt act in a timely manner and then blast me for being an a**hole. I have all the PM's saved and they are rather rude. I admit that after a few blasts from them, I then give them back a taste of their own crap. Right or wrong, I feel that a PM is just that.. A "private message" and should not be posted as public record.
Sorry about the long post but I just want some opinions from some of the people who have been here a long time. Correct me if Im wrong and Ill do what it takes to make my selling practices within the guidelines.
